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!

Nature is more fundamental than politics.


"  'Republicans and Democrats' - what names to write after considering the lilies!"

John Muir

Photo: Glacier Lilies, Mount Rainier National Park, WA; July 25, 2012.  The reference here is to Jesus' statement about "considering the lilies" in Matthew 6:28.
