Spot the differences ! 🔎

For 1 year now, I've been lucky enough to collaborate with the French magazine Briques Mag to create the "Spot 7 differences" game on the back page of each issue. A fun exercise that sometimes requires a lot of patience and attention to detail!

The month of November was an opportunity to re-establish a historical fact that has been kept secret by NASA for years 😊

Now it's you to play !

Earlier this month I showed you how color can be used to affect the mood of my LEGO photography. This week I give you a few examples on how I use simple color elements within a scene to create impact.

One such way is to use LEGO elements that heavily contrast in color with the surrounding environment. This can be small parts or the whole subject. In the Classic Space shot above, I placed my orange spaceman on top of a rusted copper tile from the wall surrounding my local graveyard (yes, I do have strange shooting spots). The contrasting colors combined with the strong light shining through the leaves made the character easily stand out without special effects.

Another way is to use saturated parts over a generally bland scenery. For example, a white creamy sky and a strong sunlight shining over the totally dried field helped me bring out the bright colors of the medieval duo.

Such an environment can be brick-built too, as shown in that picture starring a not-so-famous silver droid pair. Here I used simple light blue grey bricks and tiles to set the scene and placed the almost monochrome droids near a few red tiles on the floor.

Of course one can also achieve an unsaturated environment by digitally altering the scene, but I find it much more fun doing so with practical effects.

I hope these few shots can inspire you to take advantage of colored elements you have at hand.

Be there again next week for the last part of my tips on my use of colors in LEGO photography.
