Still and meditative HD films of the rainforest?
September 3, 2013 10:12 AM

I love the NRK's Bergensbanen film - a contemplative, hours-long view of snowy Norwegian railway routes. It's perfect as a kind of gorgeous video wallpaper. I'm looking for something similar but from warmer climates - jungle, rainforest, etc. Not even trains, per se - it could just be stationary, HD tripod footage from the deep jungle. Most nature documentaries are too full of cuts and story: I just want something still and beautiful, but full of greenery and birds. Any ideas?

There's a metafilter post with a nice collection of full-length train cams. The Burma trip in that post isn't really HD but it's still one of my favorite chill out videos ever.

have you ever wasted a day here:

armchair tourist

they are the ones that drive my local "picture frame channel" and many an evening has been lost watching that in lieu of actual programming.

Shorter clips, but still: the YouTube videos from LandscapeHD.
