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!

In the Spirit of Wildness,Stephen HatchFort Collins, ColoradoP.S. There's a label index at the bottom of the blog.
Rocks are the rocky aspect of leaves, and leaves are the leafy aspect of rocks.
According to our usual logic, leaves are much
different than rocks, and rocks are not the same as leaves. But what if
we also realized a second truth; namely, that rocks are actually the
rocky aspect of leaves, and leaves are truly the leafy aspect of rocks?
What then? And what if we also realized that we are the human aspect of wild Nature, just as Nature is the wilderness aspect of humanity? What then?
