Recordist's notes

The Sabrina Footbridge is cantilevered and when warm expands and scratches the eastern end against the concrete as people walk making the structure shake slightly. This was captured with a very inexpensive contact microphone clamped to the handrail at the point where the sound is produced. MixPre 3.
