AragornII has just left Hobbiton.
White Tree Just something I noticed...

It,s funny, one thing I noticed about elves is that many people see them as tiny, short little magic workers, associated with Santa and the like. Once you get to Tolkien, he changes them into an actual race that is, in some ways, superior to men. They fight, make art, are sometimes bigger than men, totally the opposite from the "stereotype" elf.
