Sometimes all it takes is a passionate vision and a unique spin on art to make you more aware of your surroundings.

One such visionary is known simply as “Slinkachu”, an artist out of London. His project called “The Little People Project” has been around since 2006, and his blog chronicles real-life scenes in big cities using model train set characters as the focus.

Some of this art is reminiscent of actual events, and some merely make you want to visit the highlighted city immediately.

Take a look at some of his breathtaking photos:
