Life of a minifigure

Somedays, the minifigures living in and around my house don’t have the easiest life. Take for example the guy from yesterday’s photo (here). Sadly our yard is infested with these beasts, and not only our yard, but the whole neighbourhood and probably the whole city. These ‘things’ kill all boxwood-bushes they get their sticky little paws on.

Anyway, usually I have it pretty easy. Minifigures are very patient and know how to stand still for extended periods of time (except when it’s windy that is). However, anytime a living being is involved, things change. This little guy had to go through a lot to get you yesterdays photo.

Oh and me too btw (not that I’m complaining) Lying in the front porch, people walking by probably wondering what I’m doing, lying flat on my belly on the ground before my house, the occasional dog sniffing along. Wrestling my new camera because I can’t find the right buttons (in time) yet, my wife complaining that my clothes could go straight into the laundry, the caterpillar moving faster than I hoped for, focus locking wrong and pain in my neck because I needed to look through the viewer (close to the ground) and I couldn’t figure out how to adjust focus in liveview (now I do 🙂 ). Well… it turned out a funny series and me and wife had some chuckles over the poor Lego minifigure.
