Thread: Postcards from Middle-earth!

Just opened up Draigoch's Lair and had to sneak down for a peek! It felt pretty creepy getting to the bottom, especially when he peeked back!

Entering the forest of the Great River

Thank you!

Even if mighty Champions were born to do great deeds and battle for their lands, I love to share the beautiful and sometimes vile places my journeys take me to.

Eregion. Such a beautiful landscape, wide and vast.



Uruguarth - bad moon rising

i am just going say wow amazing i love the pictures you guys have taken

I caught this pic in Rohan of the new lightening effects...One of my favorite screenshots so far.

I have a few screenies... I'll spare you all the ones I do as jokes. Most of those I post in General.

This one is the waterfall on the Entwash in the Eaves of Fangorn... I got lucky with a sunbeam.



Sometimes, Cynnabon overindulges with mead at the banquets... leading to spontaneous table dancing. (Thanks, Twila, for providing the music!)

Not too long ago I was trying to take cool screenshots of my Hobbit and his warsteed by dismounting him all over again. Some of them turned out just like I intented, like this one:




...but then one failed, I guess I took a screenshot just before the horse appeared. I had a good laugh when I saw this:




btw Rosslin, your screenshots are all really amazing. I love the one from a mead hall (in Walstow, right?), it's so sharp and detailed.

Thank you, Dubbis!
They are taken at 1980X1080, Ultra High graphics and 8X AntiAliasing and I add a bit of post processing, but not too much .

An old screenshot, but still one of my favourites:




And here's a more recent one, same theme; I love the landscapes and my "to boldly go..." pictures.

Hey guys love the pics below anyone tell me how you can get the pics i the text box?

The hero of Breeland The Knight of the Golden Chicken stands ready to defend the townsfolk from danger.

Wonderful thread. I have seen this before but I will start now adding to it as well.


Hobbits having a good time as they know best. Singing and dancing, eating/drinking, telling stories/poems & riddles, discussing about news and last but not least, having great fun with fireworks outside later on.








[This is how the Green Dragon Inn, in the Shire looks every Friday on Laurelin server. If you (general 'you') have ever wanted to experience the Shire and meet its Little People in a different, more immersive/realistic and story driven way then pay us a visit with your Hobbit character. You would be more than welcomed!]

I have a NVIDIA GeForce GT430 and Philips 222EL monitor. I almost always take the screenshots in Ultra High graphics, 8X AntiAliasing and at full resolution, 1920X1080. After that, I use Picasa to "develop" them as I saw that the screenshot I take is not exactly what I saw in the game. Of course, I try not to exaggerate as I don't like to modify the game's reality.

Thank you!

First of all, Nud Melek ist absolutely breathtaking as is the whole dwarven city Moria. Some hate it, I love it.
A couple of days ago I did the epic Volume 2 Book 3. You might remember that in order to complete this epic book you have to explore the eastern road in Nud Melek. So I came by and took a picture of these stone carved trees.

Stunning, right?



The last chapter of Book 3 is named 'We can't get out'. It's a sessionplay during which you live through the last stand of Balins lost expedition. I don't want to spoiler too much, but you get to see the really evil creatures of Moria. At some point you have to cross the bridge of Khazad-Dûm and the graphic atmosphere changes drastically. When you reach the other side it goes back to normal, but I had to capture this moment. Completely different, but maybe even a bit more majestic. At least to me.



So yeah. I'm a Moria addict. I confess.

Saw this on a restroom wall in Bree. (Actually FB, which is about the same thing in some cases.)

While running for my life, I managed to get a screenshot of the northern lights in Forochel. They happen almost every single night there.





Not the best picture but can still be accounted for.

I love it when I happen to nab a great screenshot on the first try... here's Raelskye astride her warsteed Torran.
