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!

All living things are gnarly.


"All living things are gnarly, in that they inevitably do things that are much more complex than one might have expected."

Rudy Rucker,
mathematician, computer scientist, and author
