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!

Meditating in a Meadow



Today I meditated in this amazing, wildflower-spangled meadow. The sun saturating my body helped my mind melt and become spacious, while the distant raven and cow elk calls facilitated the process whereby my thoughts begin to appear like echoes arising in a far-off world. What a wonderful session it was!
