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!

Life arises out of death.
“Life rises out of death, death rises out of life;
in being opposite they yearn to each other, they give birth to each
other and are forever reborn. And with them, all is reborn, the flower
of the apple tree, the light of the stars. In life is death. In death is
rebirth. What then is life without death? Life unchanging, everlasting,
eternal. What is it but death - death without rebirth?”
Ursula Le Guin
