Photographer Samsofy has a knack for playing with Lego — and totally bringing the plastic bricks to life. By juxtaposing the playful little blocks with real scenery and life-sized objects, Samsofy creates a world in which Lego characters are living, breathing people.

"My work combines the techniques of photography, street art, model making and installations; in my created microcosms, I play with scale and material to alter perception," he writes on Bored Panda.
