The King and Queen are hugging with tears of joy!!! It is like coming home!!! We are sending elven love out from our place in the Shire to yours, with this wondrous news that the team of creative geniuses behind the 'Lord Of The Rings Trilogy' are back! Peter Jackson and the Weta Crew has finally started filming 'The Hobbit.' This will be another beautifully filmed movie in New Zealand with the same incredible attention to detail for everything that was enjoyed by LOTR fans. The amazing artist Alan Lee is back on the set too! His sense of beauty and understanding of the lyrical line of the Art Nouveau movement makes for some gorgeous scenery. Ahhh The Queen wants to stay in Elrond's home!
Since I discovered "The Hobbit" blog dedicated to the new movie, I wanted to share these sites with anyone who loved the "Lord Of The Rings" Triology. Be sure to watch the new Peter Jackson 10 minute video about the start of production of 'The Hobbit' at any of the following web sites! The Queen is thrilled that you can catch a few glimpses of Rivendell beauty in Elrond's house in this video as well! Go forth and enjoy!!!! I think I will too!!!
UPDATE: December 2012 - The movie is finally out! Part One is epic!
Credits: The matte frame from Shadowhouse Creations was given some Hobbit green love from The Queen.
We found these wonderful photos taken by HDR photographer Trey Ratcliff of Tolkien's visible world as it looks now. Look closely...there is the party tree just outside the door of Bilbo's Hobbit Hole! Below is a closer look of the tree stretching out in all it's majesty and glory!
We were thrilled Trey came to our world and took such inspiring photos just to share the beauty of these lands! The Hobbits told us that Trey Ratcliff is an excitable generous soul who happily shares his photos and knowledge of HDR techniques on his Flicker pages and website 'Stuck In Customs.' You can certainly see by these images why his website is the number one travel photography blog.
During the Holiday Season in the eternally gorgeous Shire, everyone is very thankful for all that is. We love to take the time to find a quiet place of reflection and realize what is most important to us... ...each other...... and the unity we can find in peace.
Living in Lothlorian, the beauty is felt within, and reflected outward onto our glorious surroundings. As the lights of the season sparkle and twinkle in the misty light, we hope you relax and enjoy those quiet magical moments in your home...Please remember who you really are in the scheme of all things...a beautiful creation
of light and love. Share your most valuable gift of beauty...
...the love and peace of your heart, with everyone you encounter.
