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!

Winds bring us both energy and inner peace.


"Winds will blow their own freshness into you, and storms will give you new energy . . . In the most ungovernable displays of wild energy there never is wanting an inner spirit of repose."

The Contemplative John Muir, pp. 187, 190
