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!

Original thinking is the divinest thing.

 

"So far as thinking is concerned, surely original thinking is the divinest thing . . . We check and repress the divinity that stirs within us to fall down and worship the divinity that is dead without us."

Henry David Thoreau
