Kristina Alexanderson isn't a hardcore Star Wars or Lego fangirl, but the suburban Stockholm resident's photo project CClones 365 will have you thinking she's been handling the series' action figures since birth. Inspired by the fun she and her children had playing with Star Wars Legos, Alexanderson, who works in education and takes photos as a hobby, has been posing and photographing storm troopers and clones every day this year. Following are some of her—and our—favorite shots from the collection.
