I agree with those who've come before me. Your details are spectacular!

Wow..you capture what it must be like to be some ordinary mortal and see the tower for the first time in real life. Amazing.

Wow, this is ALMOST exactly like I saw it in my head when I read the book. I also like the view from the road, its almost like a photograph view or something. E-mail me so we can talk more about it.

Good picture! But; there should be two wheeltracks, and one track in the middle for the draught animal(most wagons have only one). A very common mistake to do, so don't be distressed.

Wow.. most Orthanc pictures show a really blasted dead land around the tower, but I like how you keep the grass and the mountains.. so it looks foreboding without overdoing it.

0.0 Wow. Just... wow.

Blimey. That is one beast of picture! I am impressed. The way you capture the atmosphere is incredible. It looks so imposing and threatening. It seems to me that it 'looms', if you know what I mean ^_^

WOw! That's pretty much exactly as I pictured it!
