Winter Photography Feat. Amazing Grace (A Cappella)

I don't post videos that aren't related to my music very often, but I guess here is one of the exceptions - sort of. Haha.

I have few great passions in life - among music, design and art in general, I am passionate about photography. I take photos all the time. In this video I have photos that were taken late December'08 when I was away from the city, enjoying the silence and peacefulness of the courtyside, the area where I was born... yes, can you believe it, I am a country boy! Ha!

*I originally had Jewel's "Hands (Christmas Version)" on this video, but YT let me know the video got blocked because of it... ugh... So, I then decided to sing a cappella on this... to delight or to torment you all, however you feel about it.

I chose to sing "Amazing Grace" by John Newton (1725-1807). Back in the 90s I watched a brilliant movie "Silkwood" starring Meryl Streep, Cher and Kurt Russell (do look it up if you haven't seen it, I'm sure you will enjoy it). It was at the very end of this movie when I heard "Amazing Grace" for the first time, it was sung by Meryl, also acapella. I cried at the end of that movie and ever since this hymn has been important to me. It is a beautiful piece of music which speaks angels if you know what I mean. Heavenly.
