so i went out tonight with my friend sarah to the park to take some pictures and hang out. Below is a picture of two ducks sitting on the edge of the water together i did not even see them till sarah pointed it out, they did not seem to be startled by our presence ether.
And here is a photo i took while we were driving home, i can only imagine what the car behind us was thinking because i took a ton of photos to make a little stop motion clip. All together i had a really good night, hope everyone else is doing well.
I decided to head to the anderson park tonight with about a hour before the sun went down to try to record some ducks, there was so many on the land tonight around 50 it was really nice.
I decided to go downtown again to adventure around with my field recording bag. I covered some good ground this time; I started out at a construction site, made my way to a pond near the peace center, then crossed the street and went over to the Greenville News building. After all the previous recording, I decided to head towards Falls Park. Along the way, I stopped and recorded in a parking garage beside the park.
This location was rather nice to record at, as there were so many sounds to be picked up at once from all the various people working. Below is a recording of some of the work going on. Near the end, you hear them yelling; basically while I was sitting there, a big wind came along and started to blow all their paperwork around.
Peace Center Pond:
I recorded at this pond the last time i was in greenville field recording so i decided to take a different approach this time using my hydrophone i build.
Parking Garage:
Falls Park:
Recording in the park was rather moving as there was a good amount of people that seemed to be interested in the recording. Some came up and talked to me and asked questions, and others just stood back up on the bridge while I climbed around the rocks and down into some tight spaces to record (although some of those people were probably just waiting for me to fall). I had three nice old people, a lady and two gentlemen, come up and talk to me for a bit after one of my times down near the water. I let them hear what I was working on; it was really moving to talk to someone so interested when I am living in an area that just finds some of this stuff plain weird.
Air Conditioner:
After i was done recording for the day and was heading back i heard this air conditioner kick on and it sounded really lovely so i went to find and record it.
Be sure to check out the link near the top of the post for more pictures.
So i spent today doing nothing sound related and it was nice to take a break for once and just walk around in a park with my friend sarah, got some pictures here and there tho sarah is so anti have her picture taken, all in all it was a very nice day.
I do hope to go back to the park in a few days and do some sound work and take some video so hopefully i can have sarah drag me back there as i dont have any clue how we even got there in the first place.
