Review: This is one of the prettiest DVD's I've have yet to see! David Fortney is a master cinematographer. He capture's the landscapes beautifully. Wonderful musical background. A masterpiece.

Summary: Nice places, but no theme.
Review: This isn't a bad DVD by any means. It's the sort of thing to put on in the background, for atmospherics when you're talking or reading or whatever. The photography is nice enough and the locations are pretty, but if you've seen films like Baraka or Koyaanisqatsi, then you're probably better off not bothering with this. It's not in the same league. Just my opinion.

Summary: Pretty Pictures- Pretty Horrible Music
Review: This project feels like an attempt at a "Baraka" knockoff. Unfortunately it's a rather feeble attempt. Although a lot of the images are undeniably beautiful, they are frequently marred by poor editing: camera bumps, abrupt fade outs, digital noise in places and overuse of filter type effects which lend many scenes an odd artificiality ala "What Dreams May Come". Also as another reviewer points out, the snappy pace of the constantly scudding clouds is more like an MTV music video than a meditation on Nature's serene beauty. What really mars the whole experience is the incredibly insipid music by Suzanne Cianni and Patrick O'Hearn. I'm afraid it's New Age music at its worst (I don't hate all New Age stuf,f BTW) with banal melodies, shopworn chord progressions and unrelentingly cheesy synthesized textures guaranteed to kill off brain cells as you listen.
Not recommended except in cases of recent brain surgery.

Summary: Beautiful background video
Review: This was done by David Fortney, a master of time-lapse photography and is a technical tour de force. The music fits-in very well, but I often will just let it play as a moving artwork. Someone else claimed the video quality was bad, but I suspect a faulty player - it looks great on mine ! If you like video as artwork, check out "Canyon Dreams" and "True North", both on the Miramar label.
