Here is this vast, savage, howling mother of ours, Nature, lying all around with such beauty, and such affection for her children, as the leopard; and yet we are so early weaned from her breast to society, to that culture which is exclusively an interaction of man on man. - Henry David Thoreau |

I have been fortunate enough to capture some beautiful images during ramblings on the mountains here in Unalaska.... It is hard to resist a mountain's charm when you know the effort will always be rewarded with a painting. Enjoy!!
