Looks like the palantiri eventually evolved into Facebook...
(Actually, this is your second post, your first one was an oversize pic back on May 25th...I missed seeing it, you should have re-sized it and re-posted it!)
BTW, welcome to TORn (a bit belated)!

Where in the world - no, make that Middle-earth - did you ever find that pic?
What a great "caption contest" it would make!

They are "backstage" photos from the fan film Born of Hope. Here's another sample. It became part of the movie poster.

Hey you're right they are from Born of Hope. I got a bit bored on set, managed to set up a makeshift studio in an anglo saxon house and borrowed some Orcs. Where on earth did you find that poster though?? It's my picture but I've never seen it in a poster before!
You can read more about the photos on my photo blog here and here

Hey, Alex,
I found the poster when I searched for "Born of Hope" last week on Google. It appeared in an article in a Danish newspaper--at least in the online version--on the film. In the article, Christopher Dane was being interviewed.

I didn't know Orcs could READ!!! Or... he probably just likes the pictures!
Thanks so much! What a great start to what I hope is a long, long, long stay here, ai3x!
