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 more divine objects I behold, the more expanded and immortal I become.


"The more thrilling, wonderful, divine objects I behold in a day, the more expanded and immortal I become."

Henry David Thoreau
