Nice composition, depth of field, and good idea.

Very fun image. I like the use of black & white, the use of space is good - increases the alone/solitude feeling. Great composition anf focus. Nothing I'd really suggest changing. 9

was thinking about doing something with LEGO myself, but didnt find the time to arrange somthing... Nice geometry, and the B&W enhances the feeling.

Good subject. Nice and simple, yet creates a strong graphic appeal.
