Calm down-town marina ambiance. HIFI.
Some city dwellers enjoy the beautiful windless day in the sun. People chat with each other. Someone asks if it's nice to sit in the sun. The old woman agrees. The planes very high in the sky are not noticed. An old big dog barks. Working in the distance. Poisonous Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) on the water surface. The remnants of a hot summer.
The old woman, apparently loved, is visited by a man with an enthusiastic, nervous dog. Other people chat on the benches by the water. The latest news is exchanged.
The carillon plays and the clock announces that it is two o'clock. Cars are rare here. The last tourists walk around and enjoy the beautiful old town.
Every now and then a little splash because a man is fishing.
The splashes you hear after twenty minutes are not from fish or birds, but from a fisherman with a spinner rod. He is not successful and changes lures more often. After twenty-nine minutes, a new spinner taps at lightning speed on the water surface. The echo of the walls creates a beautiful echo. As a sound engineer, I'm the only one who hears this. It puts a smile on my face.
Mother lets child practice riding a bicycle. Quite an art in a city with cobblestones and small, steep bridges.
After thirty-eight minutes a boat enters the marina. People dock and go into town. They will probably sit on a terrace in the sun.
A lovely lazy day.
Recording in September on the "Stadshaven" in Heusden in The Netherlands. The small walled inner city marina.
