I think that this post concludes the Valencia series. I feel I should thank the city of Valencia for giving me so many photo-opportunities. I have realized this only very late afterwards, when I counted the photos I published. When actually IN Valencia, I did not enjoy it that much..

I have also put up a page with all the photos from this trip together.  You can find it HERE . If you do like these photos, be sure to use the RSS feed or EMAIL method to be certain you do not miss out on any masterpiece I produce :-P

Flamenco Night

Flamenco dance is said to be so powerful because it originates out of depression and misery.  Female dancers are the stars (alas, all too often) and male performers accompany them with voice and instruments, to create a dark and gloomy, but very powerful and penetrant experience:
