Cone-flowers are such joyful prairie blooms-vibrant colors that stand out among the grasses, paying tribute to their Maker. The evening started with dark clouds and scattered rain but gave way to lovely blue skies, characteristic of a peaceful summer’s day.

Seven months before, this landscape was destroyed by an accidental fire. The Yucca was crisp with no sign of life on the surface. What was unseen, the depths of the roots, had not cut of the supply of life.

I planned an early morning shoot. The barn faces the south and I was hoping for some splendid clouds behind it to the west and north. I've found that when the sun is about down in the evening or just as it peaks over the horizon in the morning, the clouds in the opposite direction give a most spectacular show.…

I was given the opportunity to soar over Badlands National Park in late summer. It was incredible to view the landscape from the air with the windows open and my camera hanging out. This is my favorite image from the evening. The white tips of thin sediment were like nothing I've ever seen in the Badlands, almost like lace draped…

I'm ever fascinated by the snow drifts throughout western South Dakota. The lines and shapes rise and fall as though they are the tide coming to shore from the ocean.

In July, I spent an evening near the White River shooting the river breaks as the sun set. To create the brush like texture of this photograph I used my camera as more of a paintbrush, which created motion blur. I call this print "Rolling Prairie," which depict the colors of the moving landscape as they roll and blend together. They are…
Traditionally, photography creates a still image. Wanting to give the prairie a feel of motion I used my camera more like a painters brush, creating sweeping like texture for this photograph. I call this print "Rolling Prairie," which depicts the colors of the moving landscape as it continuously rolls and blends together.

This is the outhouse my husband and his family used until he was 8 in the early 70's. The house has since been moved and now has indoor plumbing but the ol’outhouse continues its observance of the prairie. I was with a group of pheasant hunters hiking around the area looking for birds and the sky added a dramatic backdrop…

Taken in September as we rounded up one of the herds in prep for preconditioning. I was laying on the old railroad tracks that border the pasture just west of Okaton, trying to keep low so the cows wouldn't spook and turn the other way.

Scarlet Globemallow wildflowers bloom in the summer for a duration of the season, they dot South Dakota's prairie pastures. When gathering our cows, or checking fences I find them in abundance.

Always fascinated by the sculpting of the snow carved out by the wind, Cristen continues to add photographs of this temporary landscape to her portfolio.

After an evening of exploring, I headed for a favorite spot along the shores of Sylvan Lake. I adore these reeds, adding texture to the glossy lake on a calm evening. The quiet deepened as the sky sang the last song of the day.
