Random Photo Phinds . . .




Hiya !

They're not very sensational, and this time, there's not really a "revelation" among them. But I just wanted to present to you the "harvest" of the past weeks of searching . . .

I expect the more experienced collectors and researchers will already have them, so this post is mainly for those with the medium sized collections . . .

( In case you are wondering, I've read the rules again : no source links in photo posts - so even though most of the pictures are from public places in the internet, like buzznet or flickr, I think I'll refrain from linking to the original pages I've got them from . . . )

Note : Once again, some of these are without Elijah, but they are for those among you who are interested in the event as such or are interested in other members of  "The Fellowship" . . .

Next up are several pictures from the   same event   / period of time. It seems, the cast of   Lord Of The Rings   and their spectators had a very carefree time in Wellington, New Zealand, where they dwelt for a few days for the World Premiere of   "The Return Of The King"   in late November / early December 2003. Here are a few glimpses of what happened during these days - these are only like a caleidoscope - only moments in time (which happened to find their way into my collection during these past few weeks, unless noted otherwise) :

The whole town of Wellington was celebrating  The Lord Of The Rings.  So it's no wonder even the New Zealand Post / Mail had the following display / billboard ( presumably in front of one of their Wellington Post Offices ? ) :

The New Zealand newspaper "Dominion Post" ran an article on November 27th, using the following picture of Billy Boyd arriving at WLG airport, on their front page, which didn't go by unnoticed by Billy :

Viggo Mortensen had an exhibition of his photographs at Massey University, the opening of which attracted several of his cast mates :

November 30th saw a press conference at Wellington's famous Te Papa Museum :

I particularly like this press conference for a few Billy / Elijah bonding scenes (the following three pictures are old pictures from my collection, not recent finds) :

Elijah must have changed clothes during the day, for the following pictures (old pictures, not recend finds) where he's wearing that striking purple paisley shirt ( of which    [community profile] random_fandom   has recently posted a few Japanese photos ), are also from November 30th :

In the night between November 30th and December 1st, there must have been yet another reception - or a party ?

December 1st started with a reception at New Zealand's Parliament, under attendance of the Prime Minister :

Thank you so much for inviting me! I stole one or two that I did own once upon a time but had lost when switching from PC to laptop. I hope that's ok by you.
*hugs* thank you!
