"There was a certain magnificence in the high-up day of the desert, a certain eagle-like royalty. In the magnificent fierce morning of the desert one sprang awake. Never is the light more pure and overweening than there, arching with a royalty almost cruel over the hollow, uptilted world."
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!

There is an eagle-like royalty in the fierce desert morning.
"There was a certain magnificence in the high-up day of the desert, a certain eagle-like royalty. In the magnificent fierce morning of the desert one sprang awake. Never is the light more pure and overweening than there, arching with a royalty almost cruel over the hollow, uptilted world."
