More LOTR






More LOTR sites: (1) and (2) One of the 4 NZ rivers used to portray the Anduin in wide shots as the fellowship floats downstream. A couple shots (3) and (4) of places in a Wellington park where the paths were used for the hobbits in "leaving the shire". And the infamous "root" spot (5) where the hobbits hid from the nazgul. The oversized roots were fake and taken away after shooting but the spot is unmistakable as there are signs to it and thousands of tourists have trampled the place. And the guide book I bought has GPS coordinates for some of the places.

Sorry, "leaving the shire" is a euphemism for what again?
