The Power of the Elements
Written by Peter Schaeublin
Powerful.
Quiet.
Loud.
Tender.
Fragile.
Monumental.
Empty.
Excessive.
In this gallery, I've compiled photographs that visualize the qualities of nature. None of the images contain anything man-made. I also deliberately omitted any animal photos from the selection. Simply pure nature. No postcard-style romanticism, but raw, angular photos with the untamed energy of all the elements: fire, water, air, earth. And plants that belong to the earth. These are transcendent photographs. Beyond the visible, they resonate with something within us. For me, hidden within this lies the pulse of the Creator, with which I can harmonize. This brings peace and strength.
