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!

There is too much beauty in the world!



"Tears!  There is too much beauty in the world!  O, there is too much to love, too much to desire!"

  2. You're welcome, Jeremy :) Almost impossible to capture with a camera; we'll have to preserve it in our memory!
