Thank you so much for your unique introductions to life-affirming content along with the sobering reality of man-made destruction. The balance is very much appreciated..

Here is something completely different that everyone might also appreciate. It's on YouTube channel Tom and titled "Russian ArK (Alexander Sokurov, 2002) [EN-FR-PT-SP-FI-SV-]". This is a film which was made with one continuous live take in the Russian Hermitage Museum which involved 2000 actors and showed 300 years of Russian history.

Myra, thank you, I found it and have begun to watch it. Fascinating. It's 2:21 am here so I have to go to sleep but it will likely be tomorrow's advent post, with thanks to you. Never heard of it before.

Hi Celia, I'm so glad you like the film. Something about the camera movement of the wonderful aurora film reminded me of Russian Ark. My neighbor in Woodstock, New York is an astronomer and he took some photos with his telescope this summer of a pretty spectacular aurora. I think most people think auroras can only be seen in the upper latitudes but apparently sometimes, they can be seen lower down.

Celia, thank you for this beautiful film--so peaceful, so absorbing. These big-eyed creatures with trees on their heads under the Northern lights really calmed my soul as my work week ends. I am grateful.

As mesmerizing as the aurora is, I was in love with the stars.

Hi Celia,

Thank you for this lovely vision and visit.

OT here, but wondering if there is a PO Box or some address where I could send a donation?

Rather than doing it online.

Thank you.

That's absolutely beautiful. I have always wanted to see the Northern Lights. I've been to Alaska, but not during the right season to see them.
