Forest

While walking on the Proctor Creek Greenway, right between the opening of the creek and the open field, I heard the dominating sound of the cicada in the lush greenery. In the background, one can hear the rushing water of the creek and some friendly conversation adding to the welcoming soundscape of this portion of the belt line. The sound was captured by a Zoom H6 recorder and a Rode NTG2 Shotgun Condenser.

Sound recording of frogs chirping inside a water grate in a marshy ditch next to the Proctor Creek Greenway path while an airplane flies over the forest. Hearing the frogs exemplifies the welcoming culture of the PCG in that visitors’ senses are filled with natural sensations instead of those from the city. Recorded with Zoom H6 recorder and Rode NTG2 shotgun condenser.

A recording of a friend running through the woods off of the NorthBank Trail in Richmond, VA. You will hear the sound of footsteps combined with the crunching of leaves, branches, and rustling of leaves as she runs by.
