Rain & Wind Across Southland Wheat | 3 Hours | New Zealand Storm #1 180 Minutes

Golden wheat bends beneath an immense storm sky as amber light reaches across Southland’s open fields. Beyond the seed heads and weathered stone wall, distant hills disappear behind sweeping curtains of rain. Begin the New Zealand Storm series with three hours of illustrated countryside atmosphere. Strong foreground wheat movement, gently shifting clouds and continuous rain bring the landscape to life, accompanied by real wind and rain recordings blended into a comfortable, steady soundscape. Settle into the wide view while reading, working or taking a quiet break. No music, lightning or sudden flashes, and no camera movement. This is an illustrated animation, not live footage. Environmental audio was recorded separately in Iceland and Brazil, not in New Zealand. Audio credits: “Wind and rain in Iceland_48Khz_Ms” — bashrambali https://freesound.org/people/bashramb...
