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!

In the desert, one comes in direct contact with the bones of existence, the bare incomprehensible absolute IS-ness of being.
"The
significance of the desert: In the desert, a person comes directly upon
a world that is NOT a projection of human consciousness, . . . that has
no apparent connection to the indoor human world: In the desert one
comes in direct confrontation with the bones of existence, the bare
incomprehensible absolute IS-ness of being."
