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!

Our words are coming from the land . . .



"Language was given to us by the land we live within. Through my language I understand I am being spoken to, I'm not the one speaking. The words are coming from the land."
