Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

God tends his mountains and feeds them with light.


"God tends his mountains and feeds them with light, feeds them like a flock.  Strange we regard them as dead."

The Contemplative John Muir, p. 162

Photo: Alpenglow on Mt. Owen and Grand Teton, a beautiful backdrop for a meadow of snowlilies; Grand Teton National Park, WY; July 4, 2012.  This scene was right next to my backcountry campsite!
