    (Sorry, kind of a long post...:-[)

    While I have ranted that this DVD is a must if you have HD/BlueRay. (now see it comes with a standard CD version also....)

    "Visions of the Sea: Explorations by HDScape (Combo HD DVD and Standard DVD) [HD DVD]"

    $16.95 ea. (new) at Amazon.com



    BUT...I got out my old "Coral Sea Dreaming" CD and played it for the first time in just ages. (Has not been watched since arrival of new DVD)

    Just shorter, and not quite the definition of the above DVD, it is a much more beautifly done production...In "Visions..." the definintion is such that you can see parasites, pods, etc on the smallest of fish...:eek:

    Coral Sea Dreaming (1996)

    $21.99 at amazon.com

    Also has a couple "Add ons" one of them being scenes from Bali. Which used to be my most favorite place in the world. Even thought about moving over there several times.


    ----
    Seriously, I can't help after watching either of these for a few minutes, finding myself praying ---that whenever I pass on, to just make me coral reef creature out there somewhere.

    Could not ever possibly be a more of a "Heaven" then that...


    "Reef Prayer"

    To the One Great "God", the "Forgiving," "Merciful", and Creator of the Heavens and Earth.

    When time designated for me to "Pass on," Please, as within your power, recreate me a tropical coral reef denizen.

    I would be glad to just be a head of coral enjoying the great consistent passage of beauty through Eternity...

    And while you are at it, (if at all possible)

    Please recreate me on a Reef, far from any human habitation...

    And one small last request, if I have any say in the matter, I would really, really, like to be a Sea Turtle.

    Amen.

    (Ummm, where did that pop out from...????)

    Gosh, thought someone else might agree with below...

    I even went so far as to print out nicely and near both bed and fish tank...easily the two places I spend most of each day...;)

    Does come in Blue Ray,

    [​IMG]

    Link you want at amazon.com: Visions of the Sea: Explorations [Blu-ray]

    On sale: $15.95 (save $9.00)

    Note: The HD version comes with both standard DVD and HD DVD. --- So you can enjoy on regular CD until you upgrade to HD.

    The BluRay version does not come with a standard DVD version.

    One feature I really like is that DVD comes with a "repeat" option so you can run it 24/7 and have a beautiful reef in your living room all day/night long if you want...(I choose to...:eek:)

    Accompanied by very smooth, relaxing music.

    Get one, you will never be sorry. Plan plenty of time to just sit in front of TV being mind boogled with a long series of gorgeous "eye candy"
