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!

We are composed of all of Nature!



"Man is so related to all of Nature that he is builded of small worlds. When God made man "of the dust of the earth" [Genesis 2:7], he put into the compound fields and forests complete, all the mountain ranges of the world, suns and moons and animals and plants and minerals."

The Contemplative John Muir
