Day 365 – And so it ends…
After 730 days of being followed around by me and my camera I guess the minifigs inhabiting my home had enough of me. They were whispering all day, and suddenly fell quiet when I approached with my camera. I tried to get a really good photo… but they seemed to avoid me. When I walked into the cellar however I found them all; Dwaas, Barry, Darryl, Willy, The Dark family, the wanderer, Amida, Strabo, Cool Chef, Steve the Bookbunny, Crappy real estate agent, Francis etc… etc. Looks like the main cast of Foolish Lego where planning a little get together for new years eve, and I was not invited with my camera. I even saw a little bus around the corner, so I guess they are celebrating outside of the house by now.
I decided to make I quick photo of them getting together and decided to leave them to their own. After 730 consecutive days they deserved a little vacation. 🙂 One final photo…
And so it ends; 730 days of daily Lego photography… I had so much fun, and met so many nice new people. I learned a lot about photography and our house has filled up with Lego (at least from the perspective of my wife 😉 ). Thank you all for your support and countless remarks by mail, twitter, the comments and in real life. It kept me going on days that I lost inspiration.
Now the 730-project ends, I need a rest from the daily commitment. Last year I tried to stop, but I just kept going. This year this wont be so. Within a week I need to go away for two weeks for my work and I wont be bringing my Lego. After that I will resume making photo’s but not on a daily basis. I want to take my time getting the photo just right this time. I am still looking for a new project… I will find it. Another 365… maybe after a break 🙂
So again THANK YOU ALL for you continuing support of Foolish Lego And don’t stop checking the site because new photo’s will still be made and published.
I wish you all an amazing 2015, may all your hopes and dreams come true. 🙂
The comic will go on by the way! HERE’s the latest episode of the Foolish Lego webcomic, episode 145!
Congratulations on the 730 photo run, and hope you’ll be enjoying your vacation!
One question: what’s this troll doing? Can’t see what’s he holding.
Thank you Arlwis!
Vacation from photography… I have to go on a long business-trip *sigh 🙁
Oh and concerning the Troll: here’s the answer to your question: https://foolishbricks.com/?comic=episode-130-going-up-and-down 🙂
Thank you for the great moments
Thank you Mike, you’ve been here from the start with your enthousiasm! Keep checking in from time to time. I hope/believe there will be more moments to come. 🙂
Congratulations on finishing 730 days of photos! I’ve enjoyed each and every picture. I’ll miss seeing your daily photos but I’m glad that you won’t be stopping completely.
May I ask… what is that interesting looking light on the left? It looks very useful for Lego photos 🙂
Thank you Lynn! I’m happy I’m not completely stopping either. In the past two years it has become such a part of my daily routine that I’m actually experiencing a sort of with-drawl symptoms. Now I’ll first go on the lookout for a new photography Lego project 🙂
Concerning the lights: FE 290589 LED LAMP DV 3B (they are okay… not perfect I must say)
Congrats!!! Nice work:)
Thank you very much Paul. Your continuing amazing and sometimes out-of-the-box Lego photography is part of the inspiration of Foolish Lego!
Now I can’t look for LEGO photo relief everyday D: Wahhahahahah! I’ll still have the comic to look forward to though! Thanks Dwaas, and congrats on the 730! In unrelated news, Hooray for all the new sets that came out today!
Haha, you sure do! Thanks Lloydguy 🙂
Great 365 days of pictures, I think you should keep going…..
Time has finally caught up with me. Maybe next year?
What a ride… 2 years… thinking about that it’s really sounds like some accomplishment! That was an awesome job! All those cool characters you created. That is what I will remember from your 730. Cool chef, The Dark Family and other… I hope to see them again.
And the past year you were there every step of the way, like a stick behind the door! Thank you for that.
And don’t worry! You will see them all a lot more! Just not on a daily basis. 🙂
