Another view of The Hive , which is a multi-sensory experience at the Royal Botanic Gardens, designed to highlight the life of bees. The lights and sounds inside it are triggered by bee activity in a real beehive at Kew. Designed by artist Wolfgang Buttress.
Taken with a Minolta fisheye lens, and vignetted.
After applying infrared and sepia effects I cropped the image and applied a gradient fill to the outer edges of the image.

Vignette a small illustration or portrait photograph which fades into its background without a definite border.
Early morning Blackpool, June 24. I had to taken a shot on my way in the street earlier in the morning, but when I returned there was a crow sunning himself on the bracket, thus after a little patience until he turned to give a profile I captured this second and I think more interesting image with another element of interest
This was built for the Collectible Minifigure Building contest on Eurobricks. I chose to make a tower for the Fairytale Princess from Series 12. The small octagonal tower was a challenging build, but I’m quite pleased with the result. A tutorial for that, is in the works.

The next MOC of the Indiana Jones vignette series, this scene shows Indy freeing the slaves and defeating quite a formidable Thuggee foe. This MOC incorporates quite a few unconventional building techniques for me as it serves as an experiment in rock-work and different aspects of Photoshop editing on iPhone.
HP builders... thank you for the inspiration.
Man staring out of window in the city center of Beaune. Beaune is the unoffical touristic capital of Côte D'Or. The town’s raison d'être and source of its joie de vivre is wine: making it, tasting it, selling it, but most of all, drinking it – Beaune, Bourgogne, France.
the yellow road marking, the blue rope and the unusual placement of the trolley with the ladder on top caught my eye
This Spring I held a Lego building class for kids at a local school over a couple of months. Of course, I taught them to build trees :D but the classes they enjoyed the most were the interior design ones.
This kitchen vignette was one of the builds that we built together. It was fun to see them put their own touches on their builds, adding different colors and items to it - sometimes a bit over the top ;)
Nothing really ground-breaking going on here. Focus was more on details and composition.
Hope you like it :)
My little LEGO vignette of the medieval Old Town of Regensburg, Germany, a UNESCO World Heritage site. I built this for the 12x12 category of Brickscalibur inspired by a recent trip to the city. It is akin to a skyline model but in a more crammed 2-dimensional layout. Thus it's not an actual reproduction of the city's layout rather than an agglomeration of various points of interest, specifically:
• The Old Town Hall with its high tower and the adjacent Imperial Diet Hall where the Imperial Diet of the Holy Roman Empire assembled.
• St. Peter's Cathedral as one of the most significant Gothic cathedrals in Germany.
• The Baroque Justitia Fountain bearing a sculpture of Lady Justice.
• The Stone Bridge across the Danube as a milestone of medieval bridge architecture and oldest existing bridge in Germany.
• The Bridge Tower as the remaining one of once 3 guard towers along the Stone Bridge.
• The Salzstadel and Amberger Stadel as historic salt storages next to the Bridge Tower.
• The Historic Sausage Kitchen as probably the oldest continuously open public restaurant in the world.
Due to its small size the model doesn't really make any pretense of accurate proportions or a consistent overall scale. It is to be understood more as an homage than an accurate reproduction.
Building instructions and further details can be found on Rebrickable.
(With regards to the Brickscalibur contest, I acknowledge that not all the buildings might fit exactly into the required period of ~500-1500, but each of them could have existed at this time if it was a more generic city and the model nonetheless has a rather medieval core idea.)
Trinidad is one of a kind, a perfectly preserved Spanish colonial settlement where the clocks stopped in 1850 and have yet to restart. Huge sugar fortunes amassed in the nearby Valle de los Ingenios during the early 19th century created the illustrious colonial-style mansions bedecked with Italian frescoes, Wedgwood china and French chandeliers - Trinidad, Cuba

Initiate this little stacked vignette to be a community build that we can stacked together in a Brick Con exhibition.

Charlie Chaplin is a favourite of mine. Using this monochrome minifigure as a basis for Lego vingettes allows textures to be highlighted due to the minimal colour palate.
Built for minifigures.com to showcase their lovely detailed Charlie Chaplin minifigure. They have some printing plans for the tiles and signs so there are a few blank parts at the moment (eg the sign above the shop door).
Cat is ambitiously eyeing up a jump onto the roof - always good to aim high.

While trying to shoot this Common Merganser thru thick brush I had no idea that it would create this 'soft vignette'...something that I didn't plan, but like...:)...it's worth a click for larger!
Thanks you for your visit and comments...heading for Costa Rica in a couple of days...can't wait!!!
Members of InnovaLUG built vignettes for the Disney minifigure series, and I built this for Donald Duck. View all of the vignettes on our website:

Fun facts: I built the walls upside down so that I could match the slope of the back of the boat with a 1x2 tile slope (is that what you call them?).
The windows are probably my favorite details, it was tricky getting them to be only 3 studs wide.
I based this off of Donald Duck's first appearance:
An evening stroll on the Malecón, Havana's evocative 7km-long sea drive. It’s one of the city's most soulful and quintessentially Cuban thoroughfares, and long a favored meeting place for lovers, artists fishers and nowdays tourists - El Malecon, Havana, Cuba
