These are people who are capable of devotion, public devotion, to justice. They meant what they said and every day that passes, they mean it more.
– Wendell Berry
Attention is the beginning of devotion.
– Mary Oliver
True strength lies in submission which
permits one to dedicate his life,
through devotion,
to something beyond himself.
– Henry Miller
True devotion and commitment are never made with the mind. These qualities, which allow us to expand, to grow, and to bloom into our potential, are developed through the heart and the spirit.
– Jamie Sams
For the person who is religiously or spiritually inclined, work even becomes a vehicle for devotion, a way of utilizing one’s gifts and talents to serve others.
– Marsha Sinetar
The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to the ocean-
Holding the curve of one position,
Counting an endless repetition.
– Robert Frost

Beautiful! Your captures always move me! Capturing the delicacy of devotion, the depth of spirituality, the strength of dedication, the joy of loyalty, are more than moments of inspiration, they are connections with existence. Thank you for transporting us to the sublime, to love.
As always, the beauty and emotion of your images are so powerful. The words and quotes are perfect. Thank you for the inspiration (and your devotion to capturing this world). Audrey
As always, very inspiring and meaningful!

These pictures are more needed now than ever. I would dedicate the first picture to the brave devoted doctors working with babies in Gaza despite the Israel ultimatum. And the one from Ecuador really captures the way of living in rural Ecuador. I love your work.
Beautiful and inspiring!!
Beautiful, so inspiring, just what I needed to view this morning on Instagram. Thank you and looking forward to purchasing your book. 💖
These heartwarming images from different cultures superbly show the beautiful side of humanity. You have such a gifted eye for moments that aren’t necessarily noticed by others. 🙂
