"He wants the Precious. Always he is looking for it. And the Precious is wanting to go back to him... But we mustn't let him have it."

All shot using real figures, lighting, two pieces of bark for the rocks and cotton wool for the sky.

It has often been said that J.R.R. Tolkien wanted to make a "mythology for England," but echoes of Middle-earth can be found right here among the monuments, mounds, and muddy rivers of the American Midwest.

Excited to share video from my presentation ("Reflections on Middle-earth from a Middle American") at last year's inaugural Westmoot conference from the Tolkien Society!

With #FieldsMountainsValleys as today's #TuneTuesday theme my mind goes immediately to #Tolkien's #MiddleEarth and all of their songs. Out of all of his songs going for the Misty Mountain Cold

Far over the Misty Mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day
To seek our pale enchanted gold

The dwarves of yore made mighty spells
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep
In hollow halls beneath the fells

One year ago today I posted this miniature Lord of the Rings Sauron photo I created using real lighting, figures and miniature sets...

Haha, This is the pulp version of The Lord of the Rings! I love it. Fast-paced, gory, and funny. What's not to like?
