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!

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.


"Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul
and sings the tune without words
and never stops at all."

Emily Dickinson
