Jaw Dropping

I should go into more detail about my last post - but I just don't have the time now.

But what is worth talking about right now, is the fantastic documentary by the BBC simply entitled - Planet Earth. It's the most ambitious project ever commissioned by the BBC, and took over 4 years to put together.

Wow.

What the Matrix did for special effects in movies, Planet Earth is re-shaping the way we, the viewer, can watch a documentary. From extremely slow-motion camera techniques, time lapse photography, and some of the most interesting camera angles mounted over herding elephants, the Amazon Rainforest, and Antarctica, this is one documentary that all must watch.

I just saw the first episode in the series of 11. I am going to buy the box set online.

Suburbia may stunt my creativity, but it is Mother Nature that brings it right back. And Nature caught on camera in this extraordinary way is something worth writing about.

There were scenes that literally made my jaw drop. It is that damn good.
