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!

The feast of snowy diamond loveliness is all one finished unit of divine beauty.

 
 
"I rode to the very end of the valley gazing from side to side, thrilled almost to pain with the feast of snowy diamond loveliness. It is all one finished unit of divine beauty, weighed in the celestial balances and found perfect."

The Contemplative John Muir
