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!

The Moon is My Heart

 

 Dark on the cliff, the orphan lamp, the moon . . .
Perfectly round, that bright mirror no one needs to polish,
Hanging there in the clear air: it's my heart.

Han Shan,
"Cold Mountain Poems"
