Photographer Mike Stimpson has recreated some of the most famous photographs of the 20th century. Very interesting as he managed to match the mood but injected a little of his own creativity and wit into them.

Mike says of his Lego recreation of the famous Vietnam war photograph: “The original is somewhat more distressing than the Lego version. It’s the smiley faces that do it.”

Check out the rest of his images at the Telegraph.
