There are some landscapes that take people's breaths away for the sole reason of how still and tranquil they are; for those who have not experienced this reaction first hand, browsing through the Silence Series by Claire Droppert, a photographer based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, will give them a semblance of such a feeling. Shot by the same person who gave life to clouds of sand, this series is a bit less animated, but just as captivating.
The Silence Series by Claire Droppert captures everything from snow, sand and water. In addition to an absence of sound, there is something else. She writes, "It gives the idea of being somewhere where there is a constant, exciting possibility that there has never been human intervention before."
