Sete Mundos, Um Planeta

Always a fan of Sir David's works and this is no different. The BBC has a monolith like arm for cinematic splendour, and as a photographer myself, seeing the behind the scenes at the end is always inspiring.

I also found out that the cine lenses they use are Canon 70-1000mm, yes 1000mm! Those things cost around £70,000 each. This kind of gives you an idea on the type of distances they are from the wildlife to get many of the shots that would otherwise be impossible.

The musical score, the action, the insight and the narration, a better combination that Hollywood movies costing hundreds of millions of dollars.... And you end up having a new found respect and understanding for nature as a whole.

Its exactly what you would expect from Sir David Attenborough. beautifully shot and it does well to draw you in and hook you leaving emotional at times. now is it at the level of planet earth 2? for me so far it isn't but its very close. you wont be disappointed.

Noticed footage of walrus falling from the cliff in the first episode is the same as footage of walrus falling from our planet episode 2

Just seen the 2nd Episode and that includes Indonesia where I have lived since 1986. I've been to Sumatra and more recently Tanjung Puting and the Leakey research centre and feeding stations. Truly an experience you must see. Only 2 hours by plane and boat from Jakarta

Every wildlife series the BBC seem take it to another level and this is no different... truly sublime...

Yet another superb production of the most amazing filming and narration by the master legend David Attenborough. You will be taken on such beautiful journeys and see species up close that you would never in a lifetime experience or know exist! Simply Stunning and put together like a story sad at times amusing many breathtaking always.
