A Bouquet of Easter Flowers

Apr 2, 2021

Sioux Falls photographer and avid pasqueflower hunter Christian Begeman was shooting photos in the Cave Hills last spring when he noticed a mass of pasques gone to seed. This week, he paid a return visit to northern Harding County in the hopes of capturing the delicate purple blooms. “I thought I got skunked, but then I saw a lone purple spot of color on a ridge just beyond the Forest Service Picnic campgrounds and discovered fifty-plus flowers just starting to poke through.” He decided to share those blossoms with us in honor of the holiday. Happy Easter!

I had just finished a story about South Dakota's honorable representatives like the flower, bird, animal, mineral, etc. Christian Begeman's industriousness and pasqueful determination deserve these wonderful shots and credit for the seasonal venture back to the Cave Hills.

I loved your photos of the crocus. As a kid we'd pick a bunch for our mother every Spring. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
