Me too....though Annie Dillard (Teaching A Stone To Talk & Pilgrim At Tinker Creek), Aldo Leopold (A Sand Country Almanac), Peter Matthiesen (The Tree Where man was Born, Snow Leopard) ,William Blake, Basho,the Romantic poets,and many others have certainly inspired me (landscape was and remains my favourite subject)...anyone with a sense of wonder really.
