5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly Relaxing & Realistic!, November 28, 2001

By	Mandy Lawson (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

I have several of the Waves videos on VHS and couldn't wait to see what the first DVD would look like. Simply Incredible! You can now see the grains of sand and the tiny ripples in the lapping waves. The improved resolution and contrast make it incredibly realistic. It's like the difference between a Beatle's record and the remasted CD. It's worth buying all over again. It looks and sounds like you're really sitting there on the beach, listening to the waves, watching the sunset, and feeling completly at ease... Best of all, it can loop continuously so I can let it run for hours... dreaming... I'm vacationing in a beautiful 5 star hotel. Try it, there's no other nature DVD like it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hawaiian Dreams DVD AWESOME!!!!, November 17, 2002

By	Seagull (Las Vegas, Nevada United States) - See all my reviews

After visiting the islands many times, I find this video a great contribution to the beauty of Hawaii. The beauty of the sunsets, that you can only view on the islands are fully captured here, the calm sound of the ocean is more then enough to sooth your stressed mind and soul. I have viewed this dvd on our 61 inch Big Screen with surround sound. I had a virtual trip to Hawaii, without the hassle of packing and flying for many hours. So Peaceful!!!!!
Thank You Greg for helping this stessed out city dweller, who was raised by the sea, come home again. I know what my friends and family are getting for gifts this year, for many years of enjoyment and stress relief,,,,,,
These videos are totally awesome. I have wanted to be home by the ocean again, and enjoy the beauty and peace of the sea, but life has not permitted it at this time. I have found the closest thing tho now. What a blessing!
I have bought three of these videos, and there is no favorite one. I suggest you get them all. They are so relaxing, you can almost smell the salt air.
If you want to relax, enjoy beautiful ocean scenery, seagulls, sand and surf, these are the best!!
You will not be disappointed.
Believe me I have prayed that I could find something to get rid of the stresses living in the city, and to just relax by the ocean shore, and now I have my answer. These video's take you to the most beautiful shores, where you can sit back, read, or listen to your favorite music, and not have to shake off the sand.
A beautiful work of art, this man has captured the beauty of nature.
So if you want to relax and enjoy~
I highly recommend WAVES!!

5.0 out of 5 stars VIRTUAL BLISS, December 5, 2001

By	Joy Bernstein (NY,NY) - See all my reviews

This DVD has been virtual bliss for me, here in NY. It's been a wonderful gift to be able to escape and enjoy the Hawaiian waves and sunsets. It's natural bliss. If you're expecting a quick music montage of Hawaii's beauty, this is NOT your video. However, if you really want to relax and experience Hawaii's natural beauty - virtually - this is it!

All six islands are captured in their own unique ten minute segment. Spend a few minutes with each non moving, non zooming shot, just sitting there. Listening to the waves, and letting your mind wander... Without quick 'Hollywood' editing, you are invited into the shot to relax and admire mother nature's rhythm and flow. Each segment consists of 5 shots lasting a few minutes each, capturing a complete day ending with a marvelous sunset. It truly is a 'mindmassage' meant for you to just relax, do nothing, and be! (I have been so relaxed that I have drifted off to sleep. That's really a blessing considering everything.)

Much more soothing than a fishtank or fireplace, you'll be gratefully transported to a far off land of peace and beauty. Play your favorite CD: Enya, Pure moods, smooth jazz, whatever?! for a completely different - but still lovely - experience. Share this wonderful gift with your friends and family. They'll thank you for it.
