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!

Only spread a fern frond over a person's head and worldly cares are cast out.


 "Only spread a fern frond over a person's head and worldly cares are cast out, and freedom and beauty and peace come in."
The Contemplative John Muir
