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!

Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, opening to the sun above.


"Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
opening to the sun above."

Henry van Dyke
