I have 38 Nature/Relaxation DVDs, including 8 from Tony Helsloot's Ambient Collection and this is my favorite. I have rated it 6/5. If I had helped film or edit this DVD I wouldn't change a scene. This is a Standard format DVD but the video quality is excellent to very good. Color, exposure (brightness), focus are great. So is the audio quality. The DVD is divided into 7 segments. There are 3 films with longish individual shots and with a nice music background. There is one film with even longer, 1-2 minutes per shot and with natural sounds. There are also 3 scenes with nautral sounds where the camera is on and doesn't move for ten minutes, which is one reason I like Tony's DVDs. The 7 segments can be played solo, or grouped into 3 or 4 segments. I like to play all and for 85 minutes enjoy great scenes of European streams, cascades, and waterfalls in lush green woods, with a few autumn shots. This DVD, coupled with Tony's "A Day at the Beach" has it all for great relaxation and pure nature scenes.

We ordered two DVDs from Isis Visuals via Amazon.com. The delivery was quick and the DVDs were beautiful. My wife and I co-own a Kangen Water store in Hendersonville, TN. We wanted to exude relaxation, as well as pure natural water, as potential customers enter the store. Our 46" flat screen features "Cascades" and "Waterfall Nature DVD Flow" playing constantly as part of the store's ambiance. We have received many complements on our store and every kudo has included a mention of the beautiful water footage playing on the big screen.
Our complements go out to the folks at Isis Visuals for taking the time to record shots that seem so simple, yet are so rare... and then offering the video to those of us who long to get back to basics. In a day when a "glut of garbage" pollutes our media technology, it is refreshing to use the same devices to display the natural beauty that preceded us all.
Thanks,
-- John Chambers, The Kangen Water Store, US.

I’m using the videos to enhance the spa like experience my chiropractic clinic offers. I’ve placed two 46 inch screens above eight massage roller tables. The videos have been a big hit. I can’t thank you enough.

I have several relaxation DVDs from The Ambient Collection. This is one of my absolute favorites. I wouldn't change a thing.

This DVD has many kinds of running water as the title implies - if you’re into nature as much as I am for the escapism therapy it gives, you’re in luck. There are soothing scenes of waterfalls and rivers with just the sound of the water - it really does take you away from the chaos that is life for a while. You feel like you’re standing right in front of the water - it almost seems like you can feel the spray coming off the falls. My favorite part is the Autumn Cascade as you get to enjoy the waterfalls, etc., along with the fall scenery. That is the best! The Red River has beautiful colored rocks as well as the the relaxing sound of water. While there is music on the DVD, I don’t need it to just drift away. Awesome photography as usual. Another 5 star DVD!

"Beautiful waterfalls!"
Beautiful! I was looking for scenic dvd's to help me relax and unwind...perfect!
I am so very glad that I found it!

Video is sharp and lighting is good. Sound is excellent. Other reviewers did not mention flowers and birds. I saw three bird flights in scenes after the first two waterfalls. As in real life they are quick and at good distance. Also one insect in same
scene the bird appears. Also noticed a movement in vegetation left of center of screen that I think was a person. There were
a few flowers near the running water.

"OASIS OF FRESHNESS!"
We use this often when we have people round. It is a gorgeous mix of water cascading and the filming is astounding. These DVD's from this particular collection are never anything less than perfect and this one is no exception. We love to fell Spring in the air in the middle of january with this collection. Fab!

"Excellent Relaxing DVD,"
I was a little skeptical about any of the relaxing DVD's, but I thought that I would take a chance and try this one. My wife and I really like it. We run it durning the day on our big screen, not that big really, and it is a pleasure to glance over at it as we pass by durning the day. There are many different tracks, some with music, a relaxing piano selection and some with the sounds of the waterfalls. There is just one problem however, and it is the fact that it is so nice a DVD that it makes you stop and sit and watch it and Oh No....
Relax. Really in this world, stop, sit and relax. What were they thingk when they made this DVD. Seriously it is a excellent, relaxing DVD.

My doctor's office has a similar DVD that plays in the waiting room and it's always so relaxing. I was so happy to see the Waterfalls edition show up on my Netflix suggestion list. I immediately found and ordered it on Amazon and have enjoyed it for several hours. I highly recommend this DVD to anyone who enjoys nature and music and who wants to escape to a better place.

"Really loves this CD,"
Makes you feel like you are in the forest, very soothing. Makes the room feel better with this CD on in the back ground.

I thoroughly enjoy this DVD! It is the perfect DVD for after a stressful day at work. I played this DVD during a family party as background music and my brother in law commented on how much he enjoyed it. The waterfalls are absolutely beautiful and I know this DVD will get a lot of use in my home.

This is a great DVD to watch or let play in the background. Especially nice on a large screen TV. The music is relaxing as is the sound of the water and the several different falls shown. Loved this and will play it often.

I like this DVD, it brings a piece of nature into your home. Quiet but spectacular scenes of various waterfalls with piano music are shown. But there are also different waterfalls, which were recorded with the sounds of nature. Here you can hear the sound of water, which gives the feeling to really sit in nature. In some places, I also had the feeling of standing in the middle of the river which is shown and the water runs right and left past me. The DVD shows how beautiful nature is, some scenes seem very calm, but some scenes also appear very dramatic because of the music.

"My mom always gets the blues in the Midwestern winter ..."
My mom always gets the blues in the Midwestern winter when it's dead & grey outside. She was having a particularly down day and I decided to get her this so she could have lush green beauty in her living room whenever she wants! She loves it and plays it daily while she patiently waits for the plants to bloom. Thank you!

"Excellent video"
This was a purchase for our office. We only use the picture since we have music playing throughout the office, however, many clients have stated how relaxing it is. That of course, is our goal. The Cascades are lovely and the filming is excellent. I am very pleased with the quality. Definitely recommend!!

"They are nice and mellow"
I am a psychotherapist and we have this video playing on a big-screen in our waiting room. It really creates a peaceful, welcoming environment for our clients. We want their counseling appointment to be a pleasant, non-fearful experience ... and the scenes of moving water on this DVD do help relax them, I think. By the time I come to walk them back to my office, they are nice and mellow!

"Simply AMAZING!! Stunning visuals, great hi-definition quality!"
Beautiful quality! Helps us both to relax. The waterfall DVD acts as white noise and puts us to sleep. Bought two others and will buy every one I can get my hands on. The undersea one is just stellar!!!!! Kids will love it too! Such amazing fish and sea creatures I’ve never seen before! What a treat for the eyes!! You guys have done an incredible job and the music is fabulous! Thank you!!!

Nice photos and multiple choices which is great. Nice to play in the background for pleasant white noise.

The falls and the accompanying music are extraordinary!
luv the way u interweave monumental orchestration and gentle piano depending upon the scenario! also like ----the silence where I add my own"mental melody"!
In my vivid 80 year old imagination, I stop on my hike/mountain bike, discard my backpack, rest upon a crevasse or a shore, and drift away within the beauty and ...my once-upon-a-time
youth---all this upon my stationary cycle and your dvd!!!
