About
This is the blog of Tom Williams, a 25-year-old 3D modeller from Devon, UK.
My business develops add-ons for train and flight simulation games, both independently and under contract to larger publishing companies.
Aside from computers and general technical geekery I have a strong interest in natural history, especially capturing it with photography and audio recording...

- Windows 7 Ultimate has arrived... just waiting for the hard disks now. 2010-08-03

on Nightjar - Terence: Hello Tom, I very much enjoyed listening to your recordings. Since you got the new AT4022s, are these now your primary nature recording microphones and have the NT1As been delegated to the bottom shelf? Also, will you post a picture...
