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!

Our bodies glow in beauty like Moses' burning bush.



"Pure pleasures of the flesh, our bodies glowing in beauty like trees in fire, like Moses' burning bush, without being consumed."

The Contemplative John Muir
