I agree that the description is perhaps not the most informative. It is definitely not a documentary, but more similar to Sunrise Earth. That said, it is so much more beautiful and engaging. It contains 16 scenes set to continuously loop (and a "pop-up" menu to select an individual scene to loop - imagine waterfalls, clouds, crashing waves, even a ride through the canals of Venice) This Blu-ray is Soothing and Meditative, taking you beyond the old fireplace and aquarium discs of the past. The footage is stunning and I found the footage used by several leading HD display manufactures at an industry trade show to demonstrate 1080p resolution and clarity.
Definitely a MUST HAVE for your next dinner party or to show off your new system.

I Love this Blu-Ray !! Do not sit down and watch this like a regular movie, cause if you did, you'd feel like a stoner afterward. ...or perhaps that's your goal.
Who am I to judge LOL. It's v-e-r-y relaxing.
I play this disc while drinking my morning coffee, as I'm working out (inspiring and uplifting), or hanging out with the kids. The visuals are beautiful 1080p HD!! I noticed that the BD pop-up menu gave credit to thewindowchannel. I visited their site and it gives you a good idea of what you can expect to see on this disc.
I docked it 1 star because the pop-up menu was a bit of a mystery until I found it by luck. Otherwise, for the price and quality, you can't go wrong. Cheers.

This is a fine introduction into the possibilities of high definition or Blu-ray TV. It is also good to have on the large screen to lull one to sleep. There is no plot--no dialogue--but few people, except along the canals of Venice. But there are beautiful shots of beaches, waterfalls, etc.

In short, this is better than a great many films with actors and plots and dialogue. It never goes beyond pretty, but that is sufficient.

You can watch and listen some scenes for about 4 minutes each. There are 16 scenes and some of them are good, others are boring.

This DVD is not what I expected. I expected the scenes to change versus just a still camera shot of one location. No panning of the camera at all. One can only stare at a sunset just so long before becoming completely and utterly bored. Fortunately the price was low so not much of an investment to lose on something I'll probably never watch again.

This is from the same people who produce The Window Channel, great for background, ambient scenery. Just pop this in the blu ray player and enjoy a relaxing escape. I have it on when I entertain... it's a great conversation starter. And the images are incredible. When are they going to release another disc?

Its nothing close to "Plantet Earth" and for the low low price thats what i like about this! Its almost like a great screen saver for each location, venice italy looks so pretty for the first time watching any bluray or hddvd i felt like i was there!

This DVD was a complete waste of my money. The images are passable but not spectacular. Any idiot could do what was done. You just place a camera on a tripod and let it run. I really don't like not being able to "jump" to a particular scene. It should have been marketed as a screensaver. I'm extremely disappointed with this purchase and cannot recommend it.

I really buy this product for its price and because I am a lover of peace. But I think can most benefit out companies that sell TV and wish to present striking images and high quality to its customers. The tracks are short and lack of movement. Some, after 1 minutes you will see the same thing. Not recommended for use in the home, whether for business as I said before.

This gives you a sampling of views from beautiful scenes around the world. Sometimes I just want a little something beautiful on the television while I am cleaning or just being. This gives me beautiful scenery to look at while puttering around the house.
