When Galadriel was greatly tempted by the One Ring... why didn't Sauron notice? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Sauron was able to see when the power of His Ring affected someone. Not only when they put it on, but also when it was near someone and that someone was affected by it (that's how he knew about Frodo and the One Ring going to Rivendell on Arwen's/Glorfindel's horse... that's why he sent the Nazgul behind it).

So, when in Lothlorien Frodo offered Galadriel the ring, and Galadriel was so greatly changed... physically taller, a lot mightier, etc... Why didn't Sauron knew that the One Ring was the one that was affecting Galadriel so much, changing her that way?
