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!

I can't get the canyon country out of my heart!


"The Canyonlands. What's the use: no matter where I go, what I do, I can't get the canyon country out of my heart. A love affair with a pile of rock."

Edward Abbey




Photos: (Top) Juniper snag and The Needles; (Middle) Sunlight penetrates The Joint; (Bottom) South Six-Shooter Butte and a Juniper. All three photos were taken in Canyonlands National Park, UT, November 28, 2014
