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!

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?


"Who made the world?  Who made the black bear? . . . Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?"

Mary Oliver, from "The Summer Day"
