Mike Stimpson Born and raised in West Midlands, England. He still lives here as well. His main job is not as a photographer, but as a Toy Video Game Designer. He has never been to school for photography. This is just a hobby he picked up because he really enjoyed it. The art he makes is mostly macro photography. His favorite thing to shoot are legos. Some of his cooler shots he sees as personal favorites are recreated works of art but instead of using people, he uses legos.

He is making very cool interesting work that is more fun than anything. It is fun to shoot, and look at. The photos he takes are great for all ages. He loves to use star wars characters in his art as well. He has influenced me to take macro photographs of legos and toys and make scenes with them. I really enjoyed shooting for the final project.

Comparing our work, I think the shots that go together best are Sailing and Stroll, R2 and Must Fix, and

I used a lot better opacity for the second edit as well making it more visible.
