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 idea that Nature is a mental construct is the product of a purely indoor philosophy!

 

"In metaphysics, the notion that earth and all that's on it is a mental construct is the product of people who spend their lives inside rooms.  It is an indoor philosophy."

Edward Abbey
