Lugburz

This photo was taken on a stormy afternoon at Milford Sound in New Zealand. I was hoping to be able to get a sunset shot, but the weather became too bad with so much fog that I couldn't see the mountains.

I came across the title Lugburz through the name of the song on the Summoning album Minas Morgul, who's music plays a huge influence on my photography. Lugburz means "Dark Tower" in the Black Speech of Mordor and is commonly applied to the tower of Barad-dûr in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.
