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!

Trees are my spiritual guides.


For me, trees - more than animals - are my usual spiritual guides. The silence, dignity, self-emptying and radiance of trees never fail to mirror my own rootedness in Divine Reality.
