The natural world is full
of marvels from tall mountains
00:00:27.12\00:00:32.09
to huge forests, to waterfalls,
to winter wonderlands
00:00:32.13\00:00:36.77
like Inari here
in Northern Finland.
00:00:36.80\00:00:40.00
Our earth is full of
breath taking natural wonders.
00:00:40.04\00:00:44.14
These beautiful natural scenes
bring balance to our lives
00:00:44.17\00:00:49.04
and nourishment to our souls.
00:00:49.08\00:00:51.91
We're the only creatures on
earth that can be moved to tears
00:00:51.95\00:00:57.02
by a sunset, that
marvel at the stars at night,
00:00:57.05\00:01:00.56
that feel awe and humility
at the spectacular beauty, power
00:01:00.59\00:01:06.29
and magnificence
of the natural world.
00:01:06.33\00:01:09.43
Wonder defines
us as human beings.
00:01:09.46\00:01:14.20
One man has devoted his life to
capturing this world of wonders,
00:01:14.24\00:01:19.51
the beauty and power
of the natural world.
00:01:19.54\00:01:23.08
He's discovered that the
real essence of wonder is not
00:01:23.11\00:01:28.62
in the thing itself, but in
the fact that the more you look
00:01:28.65\00:01:32.42
for wonder in the world,
the more the wonder of the world
00:01:32.45\00:01:36.99
becomes a part of you and
answers some of life's biggest
00:01:37.03\00:01:41.90
questions. Wonder is
more that just a good feeling,
00:01:41.93\00:01:46.63
it's a seed from which
our greatest treasure and
00:01:46.67\00:01:50.04
understanding grows. So let's
join Henry Stober on a journey
00:01:50.07\00:01:55.48
through the wonders
of the natural world,
00:01:55.51\00:01:57.48
let's explore, dream and feed
our souls and maybe just maybe
00:01:57.51\00:02:04.09
as we search the wonders
of nature we may find answers
00:02:04.12\00:02:08.76
to some of our
biggest questions.
00:02:08.79\00:02:11.23
Henry, you have photographed
and filmed many of the most
00:02:25.61\00:02:29.91
beautiful and
spectacular places in the world.
00:02:29.94\00:02:32.98
How have the natural wonders
of the world impacted you?
00:02:33.01\00:02:37.62
I was allowed to capture on
film some of the most beautiful
00:02:37.65\00:02:40.82
mountains, rivers,
lakes, volcanos, waterfalls,
00:02:40.86\00:02:44.06
and much more.
00:02:44.09\00:02:45.43
They have the power to enchant
and amaze, they've left me
00:02:45.46\00:02:49.36
with feeling of awe and
humility, they've touched
00:02:49.40\00:02:52.83
my heart and moved my soul.
Actually, the beauty and power
00:02:52.87\00:02:58.31
of the natural world
can leave you feeling quite
00:02:58.34\00:03:01.28
insignificant and
humble, it makes me wonder
00:03:01.31\00:03:04.25
where it all came from.
00:03:04.28\00:03:06.18
I spent a lot of time thinking
about this and considering
00:03:06.21\00:03:10.25
the various possibilities,
where did it all come from
00:03:10.29\00:03:13.59
and where do I as a
human fit into all of this.
00:03:13.62\00:03:17.63
And I've actually tried
to bring it all together
00:03:17.66\00:03:20.86
and express it in my own
way. Let me share it with you.
00:03:20.90\00:03:24.53
Now faith is the
assurance of things hoped for,
00:04:02.10\00:04:04.94
the conviction of things
not seen, by faith we understand
00:04:04.97\00:04:10.71
that the worlds were
prepared by the Word of God
00:04:10.75\00:04:13.75
so what is seen, was not made
out of things which are visible.
00:04:13.78\00:04:18.69
In the beginning was the
word and the word was with God,
00:04:23.93\00:04:29.03
and the word was God. He
was in the beginning with God,
00:04:29.06\00:04:34.14
all things came
into being through Him
00:04:34.20\00:04:38.41
and apart from Him
nothing came into being
00:04:38.44\00:04:43.45
that has come to be.
00:04:43.48\00:04:45.15
In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth
00:05:17.18\00:05:21.58
Now the earth was
formless and empty,
00:06:12.70\00:06:15.34
darkness was over
the surface of the deep.
00:06:15.37\00:06:22.01
And the spirit of God
was hovering over the waters.
00:06:40.20\00:06:43.83
And God said
"Let there be light."
00:06:54.44\00:06:57.18
And there was light.
00:07:15.46\00:07:17.30
God saw that the light was good
00:07:37.89\00:07:40.66
and He separated the
light from the darkness.
00:07:52.37\00:07:54.94
God called the light day and
the darkness He called night.
00:08:00.71\00:08:04.91
And there was evening and
there was morning the first day.
00:08:12.25\00:08:17.56
And God said, Let there
be an expanse between the
00:08:33.34\00:08:38.78
waters to
separate water from water.
00:08:38.81\00:08:42.08
So God made the expanse
and separated the water under
00:08:42.12\00:08:47.49
the expanse from the
water above it and so
00:08:47.52\00:08:52.13
God called the expanse sky.
00:09:02.84\00:09:05.64
And there was evening and there
was morning, the second da.
00:09:31.73\00:09:36.91
And God said, let the
water under the sky be gathered
00:09:46.72\00:09:51.49
together in one place.
00:09:51.52\00:09:54.26
And let dry ground
appear, and it was so.
00:10:24.95\00:10:29.09
God called the dry ground
land and the gathered waters
00:10:29.12\00:10:34.70
He called seas and
God saw that it was good.
00:10:34.73\00:10:43.84
Then God said, let the
land produce vegetation
00:10:43.87\00:10:50.61
seed bearing plants and trees
on the land that bear fruit
00:10:50.65\00:10:54.45
with seed in it
according to their various kinds
00:10:54.48\00:10:57.52
and it was so.
00:10:57.55\00:11:00.16
The land produced
vegetation, plants bearing seed
00:11:25.31\00:11:29.75
according to their kinds and
trees bearing fruit with seed
00:11:29.78\00:11:33.59
in it according to their kinds
and God saw that it was good.
00:11:33.62\00:11:39.79
And there was evening and
there was morning the third day.
00:11:46.23\00:11:51.81
And God said, let there be
lights in the expanse of the sky
00:11:59.55\00:12:07.16
to separate the
day from the night.
00:12:07.19\00:12:09.62
And let them serve as
signs to mark seasons and days
00:12:20.67\00:12:24.74
and years. And let them
be lights in the expanse
00:12:24.77\00:12:29.94
of the sky to give light
on the earth, and it was so.
00:12:29.98\00:12:35.28
God made two great lights, the
greater light to govern the day
00:12:35.32\00:12:44.86
and the lesser
light to govern the night.
00:12:48.13\00:12:50.23
He also made the stars,
God set them in the expanse
00:13:20.20\00:13:24.90
of the sky to give light
on the earth to govern the day
00:13:24.93\00:13:29.00
and the night and to
separate light from darkness
00:13:29.04\00:13:32.24
and God saw that it was good.
00:13:32.27\00:13:34.71
And there was evening and there
was morning the fourth day.
00:14:23.83\00:14:29.56
And God said let the
water team with living creatures
00:14:42.58\00:14:46.38
and let birds fly above
the earth across the expanse
00:14:56.89\00:15:00.36
of the sky.
00:15:00.40\00:15:01.73
So God created the
great creatures of the sea
00:15:24.69\00:15:27.46
and every living and moving
thing with which the water teams
00:15:27.49\00:15:31.59
according to their kinds and
every winged bird according to
00:15:31.63\00:15:36.73
its kind and God
saw that it was good.
00:15:36.77\00:15:40.64
God blessed them and said be
fruitful and increase in number
00:15:47.84\00:15:52.21
and fill the water in the
seas and let the birds increase
00:15:52.25\00:15:58.32
on the earth.
00:15:58.35\00:15:59.69
And there was evening and there
was morning, the fifth day.
00:17:05.39\00:17:09.52
And God said let the
land produce living creatures
00:17:11.93\00:17:15.76
according to their kinds,
livestock, creatures that move
00:17:15.80\00:17:20.67
along the ground and wild
animals, each according to its
00:17:20.70\00:17:24.84
kind and it was so.
00:17:24.87\00:17:27.44
God made the wild animals
according to their kinds,
00:18:16.02\00:18:19.19
the livestock
according to their kinds,
00:18:24.10\00:18:26.03
and all the creatures
that moved along the ground
00:18:26.07\00:18:29.24
according to their kinds
and God saw that it was good.
00:18:29.27\00:18:33.41
Then God said, let us make man
in our image in our likeness,
00:20:15.24\00:20:20.88
the Lord God formed the man
from the dust of the ground.
00:20:49.51\00:20:52.75
and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life
00:20:58.55\00:21:01.59
and the man became a
living being, then God said
00:21:12.13\00:21:24.45
let them rule over the fish
of the sea and the birds of the
00:21:24.48\00:21:28.48
air. Over the livestock
over all the earth and over
00:21:28.52\00:21:36.49
all the creatures
that move along the ground.
00:21:36.52\00:21:40.40
So God created man in His
own image, in the image of God
00:21:45.67\00:21:53.44
He created him, male
and female He created them.
00:21:53.48\00:21:59.05
And God blessed them and
said to them, be fruitful and
00:22:26.98\00:22:31.35
increase in number,
fill the earth and subdue it
00:22:31.38\00:22:34.78
Rule over the fish of the
sea and the birds of the air
00:22:34.82\00:22:38.75
and over every moving creature
that moves on the ground.
00:22:38.79\00:22:42.12
Then God said, I give you
every seed bearing plant on the
00:22:48.63\00:22:53.40
face of the whole earth
and every tree that has fruit
00:22:53.44\00:22:57.24
with seed in it, they
will be yours for food.
00:22:57.27\00:23:00.84
And to all of the beasts
of the earth and all the birds
00:23:00.88\00:23:08.32
of the air and all the creatures
that move on the ground
00:23:08.35\00:23:11.22
everything that has the breath
of life in it, I give every
00:23:11.25\00:23:18.09
green plant for
food and it was so.
00:23:18.13\00:23:21.03
God saw all that He had
made and it was very good.
00:23:27.74\00:23:32.37
And there was
evening and there was morning
00:23:37.95\00:23:41.88
the sixth day. Thus the heavens
and the earth were completed
00:23:41.92\00:23:48.09
and all their hosts. By
the seventh day God completed
00:23:48.12\00:23:53.16
all His work which He had done
and He rested on the seventh day
00:23:53.19\00:23:57.50
from all His work
which He had done.
00:23:57.53\00:23:59.90
Then God blessed the
seventh day and sanctified it
00:23:59.93\00:24:04.51
because in it He rested
from all His work which God
00:24:04.54\00:24:08.74
had created and made.
00:24:08.78\00:24:10.55
Remember the Sabbath
day by keeping it holy,
00:24:31.13\00:24:34.34
six days you shall
labor and do all your work,
00:24:34.37\00:24:38.37
but the seventh day is a
Sabbath to the Lord your God,
00:24:38.41\00:24:42.18
On it you shall not do any work,
neither you nor your son or
00:24:42.21\00:24:47.98
daughter, nor you man
servant nor your animals
00:24:48.02\00:24:52.75
not the alien within your
gates for in six day the Lord
00:24:52.79\00:24:57.56
made the heavens and the earth
the sea and all that is in them
00:24:57.59\00:25:01.86
but He rested
on the seventh day.
00:25:01.90\00:25:04.23
Therefore the Lord blessed the
Sabbath day and made it Holy.
00:25:04.27\00:25:09.70
