Elephants: The elephants in Disneynature earth have two threats presented to them. During the day elephants and lions get along with each other, but as night turns their friendly neighbor now becomes foe. Lions will attempt to hunt the young, but because elephants travel in packs they quickly surround the young to protect them from the lions. Unfortunately as hunger strives the lion pack containing at least 30 take charge after a full grown adult elephant. The second and most deadliest and threat to elephants is dehydration. Elephant have to track for days in order to reach a watering hole to drink from. The mothers and the head elephant have to constantly encourage everyone and the calves to press on.

Polar Bears: Polars Bears are having a tough time to get a meal as each year the arctic ices continue to defrost more rapidly. This makes it extremely tough for the polar bears to find and capture food, and also puts them in danger if the ice breaks. Polars Bears are extremely well swimmers, but as they become exhausted and hungry they could potentially drown. In Disneynature Earth, the father of two cubs was desperately hunger, that he swam for a considerable amount of time before he landed in a walrus breeding ground. Unfortunately he wasn’t able to capture a baby walrus or an adult. But because of his exhaustion, injury from being stab with a tusk, and hunger he found him a spot near the walrus to lie down and pass away.

There are many more examples during the show and its unfortunate that such amazing species are having to resort to desperate measures in order to make it through the night. Who’s to blame, acts humans or acts of nature? I am going to end this with a simple Thank You. Thank You to all those who participated in Disneynature, Association of Zoos and Aquariums, and the many others who are taking efforts to protect such wonderful species. Finally thank you to everyone who will see Disneynature Earth during opening week, as each and everyone one of you will have a tree planted in your honor.

Location Lighting with Drew Gardner is packed with information, thoughts and the inside scoop on how to perform epic on location shoots. During the DVD it will cut to commentary scenes in which Drew himself explains the setup, shows you the shot diagram and he gives you his thoughts behind why he is doing that particular shot. Therefore you essentially get to become part of Drew Gardner. The DVD consists of three sections for each Epic shoot. The first section is the actual shoot, second is the lighting setup, and third is how it post processed the image.

This DVD was fun to watch, but I personally would not recommend it to someone who is just starting photography. The technical aspects of the DVD will have anyone who is starting lost in words and thoughts as they try to make sense of what Drew is talking about. While at the mean time it may also give the novice inspiration to continue with photography or turn them away due to the amount of work that can be involved to produce an epic shot. If you are someone who understands your camera, understands lighting and has a passion for photography, then I would highly recommend this DVD to you. You will be given great insight on how to produce epic shots and be inspired to use some of the techniques that are seen in the DVD.
