Unfortunately I did not press the 'Record Button' correctly on my external audio recorder. This means there is only the out of camera audio, which lacks all the rich details and clarity which is normally gained from my external binaural mics setup! There are no hidden logos within this video...sorry. Thanks for being here! #PrestonOnStour #Warwickshire #CotswoldsNearby #EnglishCountryside #VillageWalk #SlowTV #RelaxingWalks
