Field Notes & Observation
This recording captures the sound of wind moving through the trees on a quiet early morning, with occasional birdsong in the distance. The water below is almost completely still, while the surrounding pines and birch trees create a continuous natural white noise.
I arrived at Korshamn shortly after 4 AM and initially made my way down to the shoreline below this viewpoint. The water was almost completely still though, and there were no sounds to record so I packed everything up and hiked back up onto the rocks above the water.
After trying a few different positions for the camera and microphones, I eventually found this spot. The trees provided just enough shelter to protect the microphones from the stronger gusts, while still letting me capture the sound I was looking for: the wind moving through the trees, accompanied by the occasional early-morning birdsong.
This is a continuous recording of the place as it sounded that morning — no loops, no added nature sounds.
