A before-breakfast treat
This is a set of 3 DVDs, each with 3 high-quality, relaxing 52 minute videos. Each video is of one general location (but with several different views of that location) starting before sunrise and continuing until the day has gotten started.
The locations are widely varied, such as near the ocean, in Yellowstone national park, the New England countryside, and several coastal areas. City views? Forget it. These videos are all very much out in nature. Not the view out your own windows, or even from the windows of a vacation cabin.
Sometimes the videos include wildlife. Always lots of relaxing natural sounds too. These are great peaceful videos for those of us who rise later in the morning and don't get out away from town often enough. There are occasional small and unnecessary subtitles to help you figure out what is happening. They do not detract from these very nice videos.
finally!
I have been enjoying Sunrise Earth on Animal Planet for several months now. I have been so hoping they would put this on dvd so I could enjoy it without commercials.
Sunrise Earth has no narration and no music...the only sounds you hear are the natural sounds of the environment being filmed. Yellowstone Geysers is my favorite in this set. I often watch Sunrise Earth before bed and first thing in the morning to ease into the day.
AHHH so relaxing--
I bought this as a gift for someone but I have seen this series before on the Discovery Channel. I would get up at 3:30am during the early months with my twins. I had to have some time to wake up and this was usually on when I would get up. I couldn't have anything on that was too loud and the nature sounds just was so soothing. I'd drink coffee--and not miss seeing the sunrises I used to see too much. I saved one star because I think the hi-def version would be 5 stars! Great gift for a nature lover that doesn't have the time to get to nature or maybe for some reason can't get to nature (like during the winter when you're trapped in the house with kids) :-)
