I’ve always been a Tolkien fan first and other stuff second. I’d love to see Adam as a part of Middle-Earth’s world! Previous year I portrayed him as dúnedain as I was not yet sure which character he might play.

“Ossë is a vassal of Ulmo, and he is master of the seas that wash the shores of Middle-earth. He does not go in the deeps, but loves the coasts and the isles, and rejoices in the winds of Manwë; for in storm he delights.” — The Silmarillion

Joan Wyatt's A Middle-earth Album (1979) offers up another of its strangely compelling images tonight - The Forbidden Pool. The topography of the landscape is odd here, but I still love the tiny hunched shape of Gollum perched on his rock.
Jackson's Faramir anybody?

Christopher Tolkien has died

JRR Tolkien's son worked diligently to bring us the Silmarillion and related Middle-earth texts

I think it was the inspiration for the story of Nimrodel and Amroth in The Legolas speaks of the Elven-maid Nimrodel, who got lost on her way to the west shores of Middle-earth.
