Ice Break Up

Some days ago Cynthia Nogar shared her recoreding of the ice break up at Lake 
Superior. 
To just illustrate the interesting variety of ice melting sounds, I just 
uploaded a file with 
another ice recording, from a small pond where I live, at the peninsula 
Nesodden outside 
Oslo, Norway. 

As you might hear, the ice melting in this case sounds rather violent, partly 
due to 
differences in temperature between day and night. 

Other times (not on this particular recording) it is possible to hear some som 
high pitched 
"pings", which make the feeling of being in the middle of a shooting scene in a 
cowboy 
movie.

Equipment: Sonic Studios head-style mics, just placed hung n the air a few 
centimetres 
over the surface of the ice. Recorded on SD 702.

All the best,
Gjermund Kolltveit
