about silent landscapes

Some days ago I read a beautiful issue of a photography magazine, ‘EXIT’, called ‘Silent Lanscapes’ (http://www.exitmedia.net/#). It explained why each contact with nature is so tranquilizing:

"Before this wild beauty [of nature], man looks inward, in silence and solitude.All paths lead to ourselves. All possible meditation revolves around ouw feelings, death, love, and loneliness. It seems that in nature we can, still, rediscover. On the road, along the trail, we think in slowness and silence, detached from a noisy, fast, superficial world h, distancing ourselves from what we are, from the trees and the rivers." (Rosa Oliveira)

That may mean that at the time of close interaction with nature the man shakes off all the unnecessary stuck to him through days of city hustle and bustle, and thus 'cleans his optics'. So, the photos he takes in such moments become the most truthful reflection not of the surroundings but rather of his inner self.
