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!

Sponging Up the Enchantment of the Landscape


"The scenery was enchanting, and we allowed our bodies ample time to sponge it up."

The Contemplative John Muir
