Breathtaking visuals and beautiful music combined...

"Breathtaking visuals and beautiful music combine to produce an unexpected mood altering experience. I bought this for my children to watch because they are fascinated by undersea life and I had been told by a friend (an avid scuba diver) that this was one of the most beautifully photographed programs I could get. My children of course loved it (they are six and nine), but what amazed me as I watched it with them was the spell it cast. My friend was right, the picture quality was incredible - the colors, the variety of sea life and locations were all the best I've seen. But what I wasn't prepared for was the poetic camera work combined with the lovely music and editing that brought an emotional depth to the whole experience. There was an artfullness to this program that went well beyond anything I've seen in anything remotely associated as a "nature" program before. I'd even say more then many films I've seen. While my children have enjoyed watching this DVD, My husband, myself, our parents and friends have all been captivated by it. I highly recommend this program."
Like meditation under water

"It's a nice DVD for divers and all friends of the underwater world. There is no word - only very soft meditative wonderful music. Only the quality of the filmed scenes is not the level as for example IMAX films. But nevertheless I can recomend it very much!"
Real Relaxation

"I wonder what Steve Irwin would say? "GORGEOUS!" Or, he might say "BEAUTIFUL!" Perhaps, he might respond calmer than usual because of the images of marine life... AND the music. Weather or not you're eccentric (like the crocodile hunter himself), it's very likey you'll find "Real Sanctuary" relaxing to see and hear. You could actually just listen to the music of the late Hilary Stagg and drift off to sleep, just like I did once. It actually got me introduce to the music CDs. Do you know that Hilary was actually a man nammed after Sir Edmund Hilary? 4 out of the 6 CDs made by Stagg ("Sweet Return" and "Winter Magic" are the other 2) has at least one tune featured in "Real Sanctuary."I notice that the video on the DVD is just one chapter. I think it could have separate chapters for each tune. I prepared a list below. I think it could be good reference to those who watch the DVD.
Note that the tunes with this -> * were cut short. Here's the list:00:48 Heaven On Earth
07:32 Forever
18:14 A New Beginning *
22:39 Changing the Way *
28:23 With Me Now
32:54 Drifting Toward A Dream *
36:13 Land Of Oz
42:23 Inspirations
48:53 Feeling It All * (ending credits)The tune on the slide show is "Changing the Way."I even checked out the DVD-ROM features. Those features you would not see on your standard DVD player. You would need a computer with a DVD-ROM drive to see them. Maybe you might find something nice for your desktop or screensaver."
Wonderful for quiet time!

"I bought this dvd after my third child was born because my older twins love fish tanks and I needed a wind down video for naps and bedtime. I got much more than I bargained for! Not only was it terrific to watch - the music is soothing and relaxing and the twins used it as a springboard to discover a zillion new words. I highly reccommend this dvd!!"
