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!

We Know God Best in the Moment When We Look Away from Him and Face the World

 

"Let God alone if need be . . . It is not when I am going to meet him, but when I am just turning away and leaving him alone, that I discover that God is.  I say, God.  I am not sure that that is the name.  You will know whom I mean."

Henry David Thoreau
