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!

Solitude is a way to defend the spirit against the murderous din of our materialism



"Solitude is a way to defend the spirit against the murderous din of our materialism."
