Planet Earth

Watched the first episode of Planet Earth with BB last night.

I have always liked the BBC documentaries narrated by Sir David Attenborough. It's always entertaining, almost like watching a movie. And because the DVD we bought was a high definition one, the graphics were jaw-droppingly stunning.

I think the review on Amazon.com says it all: "...Planet Earth is quite simply the greatest nature/wildlife series ever produced....Accompanied by majestic orchestral scores by George Fenton, every episode is packed with images so beautiful or so forcefully impressive (and so perfectly photographed by the BBC's tenacious high-definition camera crews) that you'll be rendered speechless by the splendor of it all."

I doubt if anyone who watches this is not touched by the wonders and grandeur of this world (and all things in it). It's as if God was saying to us, "You who do not believe, look at this! Who else is capable of such creation, with such perfect cycle and harmony!"

I always feel closest to God when I watch natural history documentaries.
