Sound and noise is all around us. We are  used to all of that. But have you ever stopped and listened to that “noise”? A big part of the environmental noise is made by humans. If you can filter it out, then you are left with the natural sound.

When the human noise can be filtered out of your sound recording, then what is left is the natural beauty of the environment.

Forest, a place to come to rest and relax. Last Sunday, I went out to get some rest. The house renovation is in full swing and I needed a little time off. I was not even in the mood to go out and photograph anything. That is very unusual.

However, I did take my sound gear with me and decided to go onto a trail that few people venture out on.

When recording sound, my guess is that recording water in all its forms is one of the most preferred recordings. Like moon shots are for photography. Perhaps not for a specific recordist or photographer, but in general.

For me, that no different. Once I started listening closely to everything around me, I was amazed at how different water can sound in different places.

It has been a while since I posted something here. Sounds are everywhere, yet sometimes they are hard to come by. You have to be either very much on the lookout (so to speak) for sounds, or you have to be lucky.

For this post, I had something in mind.
