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!

Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us. We need hours of aimless wandering . . .


"Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.  We need hours of aimless wandering . . . , observing the mysterious world of ants and the canopy of treetops."
