VISIONS OF IRELAND DVD REVIEW

A short blurb from Acorn Media about Visions Of Ireland- From Galway to Dublin, savor spectacular scenery from the perspective of the faeries.

The newest documentary in the “Visions Of” series is the “Visions Of Ireland”! Ireland is rich with history and it castles and this program sure shows that! See where the Blarney Stone came from and the rolling countryside with “40 shades of Green”. Again filmed by Roy Hammond, with a high-definition camera mounted on the bottom of a helicopter, shows views of countrysides and cities that are absolutely breathtaking!! This disc like the one on Scotland has bonus footage as well.
