    There's a sense of calm and serenity from watching your episodes, with no voiced regrets about the past or doubts about the future, just the present moment experience being given us. Mirrored perhaps by the dolphins playing with a clump of seaweed, before letting it go and moving on. My favourite channel.

    Your camera must be excellent as the colors we are seeing are gorgeous. You are capturing your days so perfectly, allowing us to live vicariously without having to leave our computers. Pascale's serenity just makes my heart sing and absorb the beauty of the day. Hypnotic, in the best of ways.

    That was interesting information regarding stainless bars that I wasn't aware of. From what I researched, odors from some foods are caused from sulfur, which turns into sulfuric acid upon washing the hands. When you touch stainless steel, the molecules in the steel bind with the sulfur molecules on your hands, thus transferring the molecules (along with the smell) to the metal and off from your hands.

      @@granthamilton2695 That is very interesting. ive seen a thing in a friends home we were visiting, n they particularly mentioned using THAT rock on your hands and feet in the bath. I just assumed it was an exfoliant, but it was more than that, a softening effect. I dont know about the stainless steel, but I know sulphur is a serious contaminant in steel making. very interesting. and it aint stupid if it works. grandma's always know the tricks. listen to your granny if your lucky enough to still have one. take over a bottle of wine n let her tell stories. you will learn a lot. that little old lady was once a fine 20yo lass, n has much to teach from her time on this earth.

    Yes! I can breathe again! A breath of fresh air! What a beautiful and very well produced video! All of your points of interest were perfect. Not even on nature channels have I seen whale bones up close and shown so clearly. And being in broadcast video production, I must give you maximum congratulations on the lighting that you’ve achieved inside your “studio”! The daylight shot with the “key light” coming through the hatch and the background being at an appropriately reduced level looks beautiful! Then the cream of the crop, the inside LED lighting looks just like a studio! See, I didn’t use that term earlier without reason! The nature shots both under and out of the water are their usual lovely selfs! Thank you again for providing the World with some of the best “TV” out there! From all of us here in Nashville, Stay Safe!

    • @FreeRangeLiving
      @FreeRangeLiving  3 года назад +2

      We think the same process is involved as with terrestrial animals. The collagen bonds etc. formed at rigor mortis are attacked by enzymes and broken. It's subjective, but we also believe the flavour intensifies as some moisture seeps out.

    • @FlesHBoX
      @FlesHBoX 3 года назад

      Well there is a brand named Eisenglass, but beyond that, eisenglass (a german word)/isinglass is also a silicate mica that was used early in glass making, hence its association with windows and window material. I suspect that there is probably some relationship between the fish parts and the glass stuffs, most likely the mica being described as such, given some similarity in appearance, either usage of the term is so far beyond contemporary, that both are correct usages of the terminology. Much like saying "kleenex" (at least in the U.S., no idea of that particular brand name has moved past our borders) or "hoover" has passed beyond a simple reference to the associated brand, into a common parlance meaning the act which said brand name was created for; i.e. facial tissue or carpet vacuum cleaner.
      Either way, it is hardly a strictly U.S. term, as I have heard many non-'muricans use it as well.

    • @TheRealSasquatch
      @TheRealSasquatch 3 года назад

      @@FlesHBoX Great response however isinglass (fish swim bladders) has been used as finings for beers/wines since the 1790's in Britain - originally from russian sturgeons but later from cod and then tropical fish. As far as I am aware it has never been associated with actual glass making - isinglass is collegen based not a silicate. If you are able to provide a source I will stand corrected.

    • @FlesHBoX
      @FlesHBoX 3 года назад

      @@TheRealSasquatch Yeah, I agree that the fish parts usage is older, and that naming the mica material may have been a result of a similar appearance, though the German word Eisenglass translates as iron glass, so possibly just a matter of serendipity there.
      As for sources of this mica material being used in making glass (the most likely source of the brand name, and hence why so many in the marine industry refer to it as eisenglass) the wikipedia article on eisenglass (isinglass page is for the fish parts, but includes a disambiguation link as well) has a lot of detail.
      In pop culture, eisenglass was specifically referred to in the musical Oklahoma, referring to rolling down the windows in your car. It was a much more popular term back then, and seems to have mostly fallen out of use everywhere other than in the marine industry, most likely a result of the brand name that produces clear vinyl window material.

      @TheRealSasquatch 3 года назад

      @@FlesHBoX I must confess I had never heard of Eisenglass - I must do more research ;-) Whilst I have much respect for the precision of the german language I find a bastardisation of english with a particular issue with dropping "u"'s from words harder to understand in many cases :-) Many thanks for the information.
