A Hit to the Head Calms the Water

Recorded sound context:
Late night, next to ocean. Took off sneakers, crouched down with the machine facing the water. Get approximately 30 mosquito bites on each foot. It’s pitch black, couple arguing in the water. They don’t see me. No one else is on the beach. Later on the man walks off the beach and the woman doesn’t follow. Don’t see anything but her white bathing suit as a speck. The waves keep hitting the shore calmly, I keep recording. The white dot stays still till I leave.
