Beautiful Planet HD: A Photographic Journey Around the World

the pictures are great but not a lot of replay value here           great pictures but limited usefulness

To be honest this app is not good I think just browsing flickr is more interesting and youll see pictures of better quality there too The content is outdated too must have been shot in the 80s or early 90s Not sure why Im giving this 2 stars I guess its not THAT bad but I would not buy it if i were you        Not much to see here

buggy I bought it because I wanted to enjoy a slideshow When an image loads and you click for slideshow it works for a few images then freezes Also the app is crashing periodically disappointed        crashing and slideshow doesn

Quality pictures Great interface                 Nice

Not good     No

These photos are phenomenal The perfect replacement for all coffee table reading I am amaze every time I open this app Peter Guttman has done it again                 Amazing

I had this app on my iPhone but it really turns into something a lot more intriquing on the iPad Certains images can hold my attention for minutes Awesome Thanks for the bug fixes                 Super Nice

Great update with some nice improvements including a fully interactive map                 Amazing photography

Beautiful images but navigation is horrendous Each continent is bundled in a single linear album You cant search all the images or even return to the previous image viewed once exiting an album you must start all over again at the first image if you reopen an album The app runs in landscape only yet some images are portrait and you cant change the orientation Disappointed     Inspiring images but terrible navigation

why does this app cost anything at all i got suckered with the similarily named planet earth and thinking it may be discovery related and it is not just a bunch of photos and a map it should be free there is nothing in here worth paying for     barely worth free

In this new update the image quality is mind blowing as the photographs seem to pop off the screen like never before This must have app provides a dazzling view of our world and blends it with fascinating information and enthralling writing Its so refreshing to find original content thats not scraped from Wikipedia but rather the creative mind of an artist and explorer The beauty of the images and the fantastic cultural focus can keep any curious traveler occupied for hours An allstar application that is an essential resource for wanderers that like to be inspired                 Visual Feast

This is terrible You cant zoom in on the different countries You need a magnifying glass to read the names Should be a globe you can move and zoom like google earth I wish I knew this before I downloaded it Waste of     No Zoom

Very disappointed Believe me if there was a way to sample this app out first you probably wouldnt buy it     Disappionted

Love the photographywould love it even better if this app wasnt so problematic Before this update the app would crash many times when I go to the world map now after this update it doesnt take me to the home screen anymore but when I touch certain parts of the map the photos dont even load at all it just shows the main menu and sometimes the thumbnail view at the bottomyou can click it but still only shows the main menu Ive restarted the app even my iPad but still does the same things This would have been an awesome app but very unfortunate that its not even worth having on my iPad since its so buggy and problematic The developer needs to get in geardid you guys even test the app before you put it on the AppStore     Beautiful photos badly written app

The iPad really brings this app to life compared to the limited real estate on the iPhone Beautiful Thanks for the great update                 Much Better on the iPad

Love the cultural focus of the photography                 Inspiring

Images on this app are great you will really enjoy this app                 You will enjoy using this app

Really great job on the update Keep up the good work The photography in this app is absolutely amazing and I love the photographers writing If this were a typical travel book it would probably weigh 40 lbs This one of the first apps I show anyone when I show them my iPad                 Awesome update and inspiring photography

Love the app and love the photos Couldnt be better My kids are loving the tour of the world via the gorgeous imagery Keep up the great work                 Just Absolutely Fantastic

These photos are as beautiful as all the other reviewers say Please add AppleTV to the app so they can be viewed on a big screen                 Beautiful beyond words but

This a static map with few photos around No zoom feature for details at all Thought it would be useful for my kid but not as It appears to be     Static map no zoom

Wish I could sell it back There are better apps out there with photos for FREE     Waste of money

Im not sure its worth the money just to be able to look through a travel photography portfolio but there is some darn good photos in there           Beautiful pictures

I bought it and all it does is crash after 2 seconds of clicking on the app Too bad I cant get a refund     Doesnt work

The app creator need to learn geography     México its not in Central América

Amazing And I thought this app was great on the iPhoneOn the iPad it is incredible It truly is spectacular work of travel photography and writing                 Wow

I love to show these pictures to people when they ask me how the iPad is or want a demo of its uses The pics are stunning              Pictures are amazing on the iPad

Love this app Pics are so clear on iPad and he keeps adding more              Cool app

The future of coffee table book publishing is here viewed on the future of computing the iPad Guttmans superb work is the first photo display app that does the iPads gorgeous display justice A must have for photographers and visual junkies                 Exceptional work beautifully presented

Really not worth the money descent pics but nothing profound lack of content all locations on the little globe boast 15 or so pics at max and theres not many locations google will show you better pics or just get yourself a descent camera and play with the exposure times and you got what this guys got Sorry        Pretty but

This app is pretty sweet The quality and variety of the pictures are great I hope he will update it with some more pics eventually                 Very Cool

I love this app Its the best of its kind by far and the new map interface is amazing                 Great update

Peter Guttman shows an unmatched understanding of composition lighting perspective and texture in this amazing app that proves that beauty can be found everywhere in the world even close to home And with an unique map feature you can see the exact location where he clicked his shutter                 A Surprisingly Astonishing App

When you hit add music to the slideshow the app crashes I would use this app and the feature allowing me to use my own music every day if it worked Boo Otherwise a really cool app from a talented guy        Crashes with music

Vast amounts of high quality content bundled into a high quality app                 Thumbs Up

Terrific app beautiful photos and the best part is seeing their location on the globe Educational entertaining inspiring                 Love it

The pictures are magicjust fun to browse through Great job           Beautiful

Sweet collection of fantastic travel images by a ace shooter              Great pics from Peter

Unbelievably gorgeous photos from such a talented photographer Great app works on iPhone and IPad                 Such a BEAUTIFUL APP

Nowhere in the description does it say nor do the sample pictures indicate that there are so very many pictures of people Personally if I want lovely pictures to relax with I dont want so many people looking back at me I was hoping it would be mostly landscapes There should be some mention of how many portraits there are Well I guess now there is Other than that the photos are quite amazing           Great photography but

Another beautiful content rich engaging app After purchasing Peter Guttman Bonzai Labs other app Children Around The World I was compelled not only to evaluated the instructional technology side but to live vicariously through the Beautiful Planet App as I did through Mr Guttmans Children Around The World app And might I say it was everything Id hoped it would be Another fabulous way for students to experience culture around the world and make the geographical connection while seamlessly navigating the app engaging our planet first hand The images are warm and so deeply filled with color image information is so rich cultural facts and the geographical pin points are so spot on it brings this application to life As an Instructional Technologist I have to say once more This approach is the very way in which education must move to fully engage and motivate our students in our content                 Bringing Education to Life Once Again

Gorgeous pics fascinating locales I love how they display on my iPad its definitely worth the price Want to zoom in Tap the screen then tap the down arrow iconthe picture currently on the screen automatically gets saved into your photo app where you can pull it up zoom in Awesome                 Beautiful
