Echoes of the Alps

This post is my shortest of the year. Posted on the shortest day of the year. Featured is a quote by John Muir upon first seeing the Sierra Nevada mountains and a photo made up of album covers (from my collection) that show mountains, stitched together along with a painting I made to create a "range."

"And from the eastern boundary of this vast golden flower-bed rose the mighty Sierra, miles in height, and so gloriously colored and so radiant, it seemed not clothed with light but wholly composed of it, like the wall of some celestial city... Then it seemed to me that the Sierra should be called, not the Nevada or Snowy Range, but the Range of Light."
