Never have I been so moved by a series to exclaim in wonder and actually shed tears of joy at the beauty that surrounds us on this wonderful planet. I have been watching it on Discovery HD Theater when it premiered in March. The first episode "Pole to Pole" set the tone by showing the range of life and species that exist on this planet. The subsequent episodes delve into the habitats one by one. Mountains, Fresh Water, Caves, Deserts, Ice Worlds, Great Plains, Jungles, Shallow Seas, Seasonal Forests and Deep Ocean are the subsequent episodes. This is one series that has to be seen to be believed of what the intrepid cameramen of BBC/Discovery Channel have been able to capture through their sheer perseverance in remote locations. The HD technology has captured some scenes and images never seen before and some seen before but never with this clarity and beauty. 5 years, 62 countries and 204 locations is what it took to make this series, and the result is a lifetime TV series.Read full review
This DVD set is excellent. I purchased it because I had only seen a portion of the documentary when it was on TV and I really enjoyed the photography, narration, and learning some new things about nature and animals. I especially loved the stories about the sea and all the whales and fish. The price was reasonable and the seller got it to me quickly. It would be great for a family to watch together, and I think all ages could enjoy this type of great film-making. There is not one thing that I dislike about this DVD set, and I would definitely purchase it again.

This is a wonderful look at life here on our planet. The cinematography is extrordinary and you can really see the marvels that are all around us. Some very rare footage was shot of snow leopards. This video is amazing and the patience of the photographers is well worth a look.
