Summary: Beautiful and Exquisite
Comment: I enjoy watching all of the Windham Hill DVDs. I first purchased 4 of them as laserdiscs, which is how I was introduced to the Windham Hill music and videos. Now, I have the entire collection of DVDs. They are so beautifully done. Though there is no commentary, I believe they are some of the best nature films produced.
Autumn Portrait is my favorite of the series mainly because fall is my favorite season. The colors are exquisite, adding tremendous warmth, and making this extremely 'feel-good' to watch. It is also a very romantic DVD, very good for getting into the mood, especially after a long day of screaming kids, when they are finally settled in bed. My husband and I both enjoy watching this and highly recommend it others.

Summary: Could have been better if digitally mastered
Comment: The picture was a bit too grainy and indistinct for full enjoyment (judged aagainst newer DVDs, please don't think that the quality is so "bad" as to be unwatchable, it just could be much better). The quality of the 10 year-old VHS that I borrowed from the library was hardly worse.
The musical tracks are very good and the images of Vermont are wonderful. They deserve better treatment.
Windham Hill, please digitally re-master this (preferably in 5.1) and I would be willing to plunk down the purchase price all over again.
As it stands, buy it and enjoy it as unfortunately, this is the only way we can enjoy this wonderful collection (at least for now).

Summary: I bought this for the memories
Comment: With todays graphics, video cards, cameras, DVD players, television sets etc., this release cannot hold up to the standards--the resulting resolution is fair at best (I can remember way back when I used the VHS rendition of this and the "Winter" release as video/audiophile standard test tapes).
But the magic of this and the "Winter" release is the scenery and the interpolation of the music along with it.
The new age music and the very beautiful scenery is just what is needed upon your laptop if you are on a long flight or if you live in a concrete and steel city (to remind you what trees and snow and peace is all about).

This Dreamvideo was filmed during the first half of October 1984 in Windham County, Vermont. Experience Windham County's October colors in Autumn Portrait -- featuring the music of nine Windham Hill recording artists, Autumn Portrait "makes for a pleasant and relaxing hour of articulate music." (The Laser Disc Companion) The various shades of green, yellow and red foliage gives the audience the feeling of being in the New England countryside.
