New Pictures from German calendar (potential spoilers) Can't Post

The German Online Shop Elbenwald released preview pictures of the 2013 Hobbit Calendar on their website. Most of them are old ones but there are some new of Mirkwood, Radagast and the dwarves.
You can find them here: http://www.elbenwald.de/...L-Kalender-2013.html
Click on the small ones to enlarge them.
Some of them may contain minor spoilers.

Thanks for these! [In reply to] Can't Post

Yes, some of the pictures are new. Smile

Mirkwood looks far too bright though. It's not dark at all.

Background of Radagast picture (spoiler) [In reply to] Can't Post

The Background of the upper Radagast picture looks like Dol Guldur.

I was thinking... [In reply to] Can't Post

...more Nazgul tombs, actually, particularly the lower left image!

too bright [In reply to] Can't Post

Almost every shot in this calendar looks too bright, too pale, they look all the same.
I don't think these are finalized screenshots, so no worries about mirkwood, it will become darker

Mirkwood should be considerably darker.

Yes, and no. They escape Mirkwood and the Woodland Realm in the barrels.

I've seen the calendar in a bookshop [In reply to] Can't Post

I've seen the calendar in a bookshop in Germany a couple of weeks ago. The pictures are darker than they look here.

They may have lightened them up as well for the printing [In reply to] Can't Post

If it's too dark then people won't know why they're looking at.

PJ/Andrew Lesnie also have a tendency to over-light things [In reply to] Can't Post

Shelob's Lair comes to mind as a scene that's too bright. Don't get me wrong, Middle-earth looks great overall, but they could take a page out of Roger Deakins' book of cinematography when it comes to shadows.

I would rather things be over lit [In reply to] Can't Post

than not have the faintest idea what's going on, which is far too common in movies and TV these days.

Is carrying Bombur a new find? [In reply to] Can't Post

I'm glad to see that made it in...well into film two anyway.

I think it will be important to the plot [In reply to] Can't Post

rather than played for laughs.
