This DVD was shot in HD, so the snow is crisp and well defined. The DVD was played on a plasma TV. The views are of differing scenes of a wooded area. There are forests, fences, logs, streams and ice covered brush. The snow is as beautiful as you could imagine--with large and small flakes swirling in the wind. The snow is accompanied by soothing Christmas music, played on guitar and piano. The tunes are:
Deck the Halls, Joy to the World, The first Noel, O Come O Come Emanuel, Away in a Manger, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Oh Christmas Tree, Angels We Have Heard on High, Silent Night, We Three Kings, Carol Of The Bells, It Came Upon A Midnight Clear, We Wish You a merry Christmas, Coventry Carol, O Holy Night, and Auld Lang Syne.
If you want snow, this is a very good purchase!

This was exactly what I was looking for! I read the reviews for every snowfall DVD on Amazon, and with apprehension, chose this one. I was mesmerized from the first 30 seconds. I'm not sure what one reviewer was talking about when they claimed the trees didn't move - they sway in the breeze with the blowing snow - I saw that in several shots. You can see every type of snow imaginable - big, fat flakes, swirling snow, tiny, icy flakes, fast snow, slow, lazy snow - you name it. The scenes are all gorgeous and the music is very relaxing. I felt each scene was held for just the right amount of time, and I appreciated the large selection of scenes. As a midwestern gal, I've seen much snow in my time. It's only Sept here in north Texas, but I can't stop myself from watching it every morning, and I plan to have it up on my big screen playing nearly constantly this Christmas season. My kids are guaranteed a Christmas morning snowfall as they open their gifts. My Mother will be getting one of these for her birthday, as she loves snow just as much as I. Buy this DVD - I promise you won't regret it!

My husband said that I was a geek when he saw I purchased A Christmas Snowfall. I purchased it as a backdrop for my Christmas party. It was a huge hit! Some of the scenes are beautiful. Although I wouldn't sit and watch the whole thing, it is nice in small doses. I can't wait until next Christmas!

I really liked this DVD. It is actual falling snow, not still shots, and it very much like looking out your own window. Also, the music was lovely! It is more of a "mood" experience, not so much entertainment, so keep that in mind. It is beautiful, though.

Great video. It is nice to see the snow and not have to shovel the driveway. Picture and sound is very good. Bought several for gifts especially for family in FL. Now they can have a "white christmas" too.

I purchased this DVD last year (2010) and used parts of it for our church Christmas program. We just turned off the music and used it as a back-drop for individual solos. It helped create a very "peaceful" ambience for the church. This DVD has a moderately good variety of scenes. Since all the shots are of snow falling, there are no scenes with any sunshine. I'm thinking putting together my own DVD like this, but I would include beautiful scenes of snowy landscapes with sunshine and then also night scenes with some Christmas lights included. What I like best about this DVD is that the camera does not move. There are no camera pans or zooms, so the scenes really are like a live "painting". Overall a very nice DVD and I'll be looking for more like it.

This is a pretty good video of snow falling, especially if you don't get to see the real thing very often. The music is quite nice and I know I'll enjoy this next Christmas. My only complaint is that it looks like a series of snow scenes with the falling snow added in - the trees never move at all, not even a tiny bit. But for a party backdrop, it'll be just fine.

I have it running on TV over my mantle behind a Nativity scene for Christmas, and everyone who sees it loves it. The review that says nothing moves is not accurate -- some of the scenes absolutely do move. As with live snowfall, often there is no wind, but look closely, there is some movement and the scenes are wonderful. I might also watch it in the heat of the summer, too -- just to feel cooled by the snow! I love it, and have ordered a second one for a friend.

I love this snowfall dvd! It's truly beautiful and yes the trees and water move so it's totally natural. The music is peaceful and compliments the beauty of the many scenes. I am ordering a few as Christmas gifts to give along with some candles. Order it you're sure to love it; the dvd will add a festive feeling to any holiday celebration.

Very nice pictures and the Christmas music is enjoyable. A good DVD for the TV while having a party. Nice change from the fireplace DVD, although I like both!
