Gentle Lapping Water Sound For Stress Release & Calm
by Ryan Garner
I have been trying to capture this sound for a long time at my local reservoir. However, as this is such an intimate and gentle sound, it is difficult to not pick up other sounds too. As you will hear, there are distant passing conversations, sheep and also cars. This is a shame. Sometimes I feel it detracts from the focal point a little, however I am also of the mind that this is sound that is unedited and raw, like a photographer capturing a moment with their camera. All the sounds surrounding the lapping water and occasional hiss of the breeze through nearby leaves are part of that picture. One day, I will capture this with less background noise. However, I hope for the time being you can enjoy this as it is. I hope the ambience isn't too distracting. I did the best I could, but have come to accept that this is part and parcel of field recording, embracing everything and accepting it.
