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!

What is this beauty in the landscape but a certain fertility in me?



"What is this beauty in the landscape but a certain fertility in me? I look in vain to see it realized but in my own life."

Henry David Thoreau
