I LOVE THE SEQUOIAS!!! Much better than most "nature" bluray & dvd combos.Great Images,Great Music,Great Time!!!
This is a grade "A" nature bluray! I wish it were longer than 40 mins.Very peaceful and soothing.Sequoia National Park is my favorite and I wish even more time was spent filming those great trees.The really cool thing about these Jan Nickman videos are that you can play it without the narration and just the wonderful music. Also you can do "endless loop" as a good thing for background viewing at a party,etc.This and "Sacred Earth" are both worth owning.A word about packaging A) the white box says : As Seen on Public Television and is older packaging with the same quality Bluray & DVD.B) Is new packaging that may not come with a slip cover.The new packaging is green like the forrest.I know that Sacred Earth Productions is trying to change to the new packaging but are having trouble with the "process"at Amazon.So nice to sit back and see the best of nature as presented by Jan Nickman and crew.I will buy more from Jan Nickman and Sacred Earth Productions LLC in the future.I'm a very happy camper!

Blu-Ray Version of Echoes of Creation
Since we loved the DVD version of Echoes of Creation, I thought that the Blu-Ray version would even be greater in technical quality. However, after viewing both the Blu-Ray and the High Definition versions of the combo pack, I do not detect much, if any, significant difference between these and the original DVD, perhaps a miniscule improvement. In any case, the difference was not that important. Surprisingly, the combo pack is a better value than the single DVD.

Calmness, Relax and Soothing to the ears !!!
I have never dwell into this kind of stuff/genre before but after trying out Echoes Of Creation on DVD, I've decided that I must have it on blu ray to give it further justice and for the hi-def experience as the visual is simply breathtaking and relaxing for the eyes and the music that accompanies it is simply sootihing to the ear. Both audio and visual gels really well. I can't wait to receive my blu ray disc but for now, I shall pop in the DVD and enjoy it.Note : For an unforgetable experience, you must have at least a reasonable sound system setup to really appreciate this disc as without it then it is just another ordinary boring disc.

It's perfect for my use
I purchased this after viewing the program on PBS. I wanted to have it to run as a background program for other activities. The DVD has an option to play images and music without any of the script. It's perfect for my use. Very pretty and relaxing.

Nice Views of Alaska
A nice video, showing many wonders of Alaska. I made a trip to Alaska this summer and wanted something as a reminder of the trip. Actually though much of what is on the video tells me I need to take more trips to Alaska to see the vast wonders. The video itself is nice, but far from the overall quality of a production like "Planet Earth."

Nice to have on anytime
Great visuals. Saw this program (with intermissions) on PBS during a pledge drive. Decided to order it from Amazon. I like to put it on without the narration and just listen to the music with the fantastic visuals. I often have it playing in the background when friends come over to have something nice to show on the HDTV when we're just visiting.

it's ok
why does there have to be written words for every review. It is an okay video and if I remember correctly, somewhat meditational due to the pace of the movie

It's like a video meditation
It has spectacular photography and the music is so beautiful and soothing. I put it on to relax or for back ground when I am paying bills or other mindless tasks...like opening junk mail. It is how I motivate myself to do these dull chores.I also use it to fall asleep to when my mind won't turn off. Wonderful!
