Is it snowy? Is that very volcanic? But the evil sky is totally working... and NZ has awesome landscape, I'm so glad they filmed it there

I love LOTR. And I nearly forgot that New Zealand is the heart of the movie! Certainly a majestic-looking mountain. Awesome capture and edit!

After Lord of the Rings came out I reread the books and realized that the way I imagined it after the movies was entirely different from the way I imagined it the first time I read them. NZ will always be middle-earth to me.

i love how we interpret/visualize what we read you tend to create more details in your mind than could ever be displayed on screen...

Another mountain landscape. I love the moody sky here though, but yeah not exactly a original subject. Everyone else loves it though, it's well executed.
