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!

In silence God is heard, in silence worshipped best.


"God far exceeds all words
that we can here express
In silence He is heard,
in silence worshipped best."

Angelus Silesius,
17th century Germany
