On Boxing Day, I set out to capture the serene atmosphere of Lydbrook in the Forest of Dean. The morning was cold and misty, and I placed my Sony PCM-M10 recorder on a fence in the backyard to make an unattended, long-form field recording. The soundscape was soothing: various birdsong filled the air, their melodies sharp against the stillness, occasionally interrupted by the hum of a passing car. Six and a half minutes in, church bells chimed, marking the peaceful passage of time. It was a balm to experience such tranquillity in the countryside, a stone's throw from the River Wye.

A last-minute unplanned recording of fireworks being let off in our neighbourhood using the Sony PCM-M10 built-in mics.
I'd never heard such a cacophony of fireworks let off at such quick succession for so long. It's slightly muffled as a result of recording indoors with the window only slightly open.
