Middle Earth

Taken on our afternoon walk up the picturesquely named 'Val sans Retour' on the outskirts of the nearby village of Tréhorenteuc. Immediately I saw this scene, I found myself thinking 'Middle Earth'. I'm not sure that it's a very good representation of Tolkien's creation but it pleased me enough to make it my 365 post for today.

Worth a little click to view this on black I think...

These woods most definitely have great character and would fit well in Mr. Tolkien's world. Wonderful texture with just touch of ominous. Fav.

Middle earth indeed :)

Great shot. I never really got into Lord of the Rings. I even tried to watch the first one again the other night but fell asleep. Your picture certainly is Tolikienesque! Beautiful.

Well titled.
