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!

O Lord, . . . my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.


"O Lord, . . . my soul thirsts for you like a parched land."  (Psalm 143:6)

Photo: This is Crater Lake, in the Maroon Bells - Snowmass Wilderness near Aspen Colorado.  However, as is obvious, there was no water here this past weekend (September 23, 2012).  Normally, it is a wonderful place to catch the Maroon Bell Peaks reflected in the water.  But this year, our extended drought has taken its toll.
