Stormy Slim Buttes
Oct 10, 2013
A photographer’s got to be ready for whatever South Dakota skies bring. Christian Begeman experienced that on his recent West River fall photo trip on September 30. “When I was shooting in the Slim Buttes of Harding County, a cold front swept through and brought brief yet heavy sideways rain and strong wind gusts. I heard later on the news that an 85 mph wind gust was recorded just west and north of where I was in Buffalo. I went out to meet the storm and then chased the rainbow it produced until I got back to the Slim Buttes,” Christian said.
