Week 3 #5 Flickr post

I decided to search for "Tolkien" in Flickr just to see how varied the tags really were (expecting to get no results) and I actually got 8,789 results!! Shows how little I know about photo-taking opportunities that deal with Tolkien...but it also shows the resources available on Flickr and the creative inspiration that can result from the site.

The photo I particularly noticed is located here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/silvr/524997257/in/set-72157600295331793/

The owner of the photograph took it on a 2007 Vietnam/Cambodia trip and refers to the location as Ta Prohm and titles it, "And now we pause for a Tolkien moment"--which was definitely true. It looks like the opening to the Mines of Moria, especially akin to the film's depiction.
