In northern latitudes, Aurora borealis (or The Northern Lights), named after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for north wind, Boreas, more...often appears as a greenish glow or sometimes a faint red, as if the sun was rising from an unusual direction. The aurora borealis is also called the northern polar lights, as it is only visible in the North sky from the Northern Hemisphere. The ultimate energy source of the aurora is the solar wind flowing past the Earth. The Cree call this phenomenon the Dance of the Spirits. Enjoy ! less

Nightmares are a universal occurrence that we all experience at some time in our lives. Some people may experience nightmares often. Nightmares are disturbing more...dreams which may follow us for years worrying us with their persistence and their vividness. Nightmares in ancient times were thought to be caused by evil spirits that would haunt and suffocate people while they slept. The nightmare is often accompanied by feelings of oppression and helplessness. Nightmares make a more lasting impression upon us and the feelings from the dream will often linger on into our waking life the following day. The nightmare serves to get our attention to something that is psychologically important to us often something that has been seriously neglected in our waking life. Sometimes it is possible to deal with the nightmare by coming to terms with it and understanding what our fears are about.

The roots of Flamenco can be traced back for centuries. Born from the expression of a persecuted people, most notably, the Gypsies of Southern Spain, more...its unique blend of influences and musical complexity can be attributed to the consequences of the decree made in Spain 1492 by Catholic Spanish King Ferdinand V and Queen Isabella that everyone living under their domain convert to Catholicism. This proclamation was issued under the threat of varying degrees of punishment, the most severe being the death penalty, by fire. Gypsies, Muslims, Jews and anyone living in Spain at the time was ordered to convert. It is believed that because of this decree these different ethnic groups came together to help each other, and within this melding of cultures Flamenco was born.
Flamenco, in general, consists of three artistic elements: the singing (cante), the dance (baile) and the guitar (guitarra). In addition, there are often members of a Flamenco group playing "palmas" or hand-clapping. The relationship between the artists is similar to that of Jazz-there is a basic structure that one must follow, but at its heart, it is an improvised form. The singing is the center of the Flamenco group. The dancer physically interprets the words and emotion of the singer through his or her movements, which include percussive footwork and intricate hand, arm and body movements. The guitarist provides the accompaniment to the singer and dancer, accentuating his or her vocal lines and/or melodies.
Most scholars will agree that the birthplace of Flamenco is Jerez de la Frontera, a small city in Southern Spain. However, because of the nomadic nature of the Gypsies, who moved from town to town selling their wares and doing odd jobs, Flamenco quickly gained roots in several Andalucian towns, including Sevilla and Granada. Flamenco went through many phases in the 18th and 19th centuries, including the performance of the form by non-Gypsies. Ironically, this is what gave the form its legitimacy, as it was seen in theatres and cafes. It can also be said that it became commercial, with the obvious negative implications, as well as quite successful. And although the Gypsies did not achieve respect and honor for their contribution to the art form until many years later, they have always been considered the best interpreters of the Flamenco arts.
Towards the end of the 19th century flamenco entered the commercial arena. This led to the evolution of 'professional' artists and culminated in the period of the 'cafes cantantes' (song and dance cafes) where flamenco could be heard and seen in public. This evolution also led to changes in the nature of the songs as fads developed for particular types of cante. Many of the more primitive forms languished, and some were totally lost, while other more upbeat forms achieved tremendous popularity. Growing commercialization continued until the 1950s when the influx of tourists to post-war Spain threatened to debase the art form completely. Fortunately, at this same time, several singers rediscovered the older forms and re-established interest in flamenco as an art form as well as a commercial form of music. This process depended in part on memories of older amateur singers, as there were few recordings to reference. The establishment of Flamenco Festivals during the 1960s - 1980s reinforced this revival. Although some regard these as having stifled the intimacy and spontaneity of Flamenco, they undoubtedly opened up the art to a wider public and provided opportunities for new artists less

Fly To Be.
Written and performed by Will Gell and Joanna Lero.
This song features on my forthcoming CD. It began life as an odd little guitar more...solo I was playing around with when I started to think that Joanna would be able to sing to it. I sent her a recording of the solo and she wrote, recorded and performed an astounding vocal. I then asked her to add backing vocals, which she had never done before, and soon the piece took on a whole new feel and I arranged it with the addition of bass guitar and synthesisers on top of the original guitar.
As this was meant to be a quirky piece for my CD there wasn't originally an intention to make a video but with the imagery Joanna's lyrics created it was too hard to resist. We both agreed that a graveyard setting was a must for this video so Joanna took her friend to a graveyard in her hometown Poznan, Poland and shot the outdoor scenes and later filmed the vocal parts separately.
I then spent the best part of three days editing this video together. I'm hardly in it at all!! 8^)
It's a very beautiful and sad song and one which I am very proud to have been part of creating.
Thanks to Asia for being Director on location in the graveyard! 8^)
Very special thanks once more to Joanna Lero for her creativity, patience, co-operation and enthusiasm for this project.

Lyrics.
now I found my fame
now I am like you
and I'd fly to be the one
I've been growing for far too long
I am taking them
then I fall
only then can I feel your soul
and I'd fly to be
fly to be there
going downwards still I fly in heart away
hate the clouds that swoon so fast
yet I yearn to swim with them
all your words will be forgotten
they will fade but pain will tear
so I'll lay on the ground
feel the earth
wish I saw some real moments there
so I'd fly to the days
cope with breath we'd take
still hear the noise of your fall
last fall, alone
now in silence I will follow your way
now I'm growing with some other flowers
now in silence I have decided to fall with you
and I'd fly to be
fly to be the one
but I grow on your tomb
pulling regrets away less

04:47
Hello everyone, I am sorry that I am late with this video but windows movie maker was not cooperating with me this past days. This is a little explanation more...what we Mexican really celebrate on May 5th
The fifth of May, the celebration of a Mexican victory in the war against the French in 1862. For some reason many years ago Americans thought it was our Independence Day, (by the way Mexican Independence day is celebrated on September 16.)
Cinco de Mayo widely anticipated and embraced by the gringo community as a rite of spring and an excuse to drink Margaritas in excess, Cinco de Mayo celebrations are held by Latino residents all south of California.
I edited this video with video clips of Mexican Folklore dances; some of them are from the famous “Amalia Hernandez Ballet in Mexico City. At the end of the video you will see the pictures I took on Old Town, we also visited the famous Whaley House according to the Travel Channel's "Americas Most Haunted", Thomas Whaley built Whaley House in 1856. The home is a two-story Greek revival style brick building. It cost $10,000 to build which was quite a lot of money in the 1850's. The home is a very important part of San Diego history. The home was built on the site where public hangings occured. One ghost that appears is said to be "Yankee Jim". He was hanged on the gallows of the back of a wagon in 1852. In addition to being the Whaley family home, it housed a granery, the County Courthouse, San Diego's first commercial theatre, various businesses including Thomas Whaley's own general store, a ballroom, a billiard hall, school, and polling place. Downstairs in the home you will find the Courtroom, General Store, Dining Room, Study, and Parlor. less
