'Those that watch from afar'.
According to Tolkien's lore, the seven seeing stones were brought
to Middle Earth by Elendil and his sons, to keep watch & communicate
across the lands. Ultimately,
they proved very troublesome in deed. However, not all seeing stones
have such romantic or troubled
history; this 'stone' was blown with detergent by a child. Yet look
inside, and you will still see figures in
distant places. Photo details: Canon 350D, ISO 400, 1/320th second
exposure with a Canon EF
70-200mm IS USM lens @ f-3.5.
