Behold the world of people taking photos of Star Wars Stormtroopers as if they’d found themselves in a giant world where nothing made sense! This idea sprung up in the minds of folks at Flicker probably a bunch of years ago, since then there’ve been hundreds of these photos taken by more than likely hundreds of different aspiring photographers. So what do you do if you want to stand out in that particular group? You get a radical concept, like taking these sorts of photos once a day for an entire year. That’s exactly what mister Stéfan Le Dû did, and not only did he keep it up the entire year, he held on to some excellent craftsmanship through the whole process as well.
And not only did he take some fantabulous photos, he basically kept up a loose storyline of these two stormtroopers, TK479 and TK455, as they travel through this bigger world, reporting to Darth Vader, staying clear of wookies, writing hate mail to Luke Skywalker, having some adventures with ewoks, beating up on Playmobil characters.
Everything you could want!
This photo set started way back in mid-2009 and just got finished recently last month in 2010! Congratulations to Le Dû for making it the whole year ’round, that’s a challenge in itself, then further contgrats are in order for Le Dû making some bank off this project! You can now buy some prints of this series for astronomical prices over at RedBubble. Generally I don’t comment on the prices of things, especially if they’re sold overseas from where I am, but $90 for a photograph might be a little bit on the high side. Those are Imperial prices if ever have I seen such a thing.
Below you’ll find the entire set of 365 days of stormtrooper photos. Revel in their indecency and hilarity and lovliness. All photos ©2009-2010 Stéfan Le Dû.
If you’re additionally interested in photos such as these and for some reason JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH, head on over to more sets by people such as Zed The Dragon, The Guy with The Hat, ChikaD58, Doctor Beef, Sam Spam, and Sad Old Biker, amongst many others, you can be sure. So many stormtroopers.
