I grew up in the Black Hills area of South Dakota. I am a college student at Northern State University in Aberdeen, SD. While at NSU, I spent one year on exchange at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. During my time spent in Hawaii, I studied Marine Biology.  I'm  majoring in  Biology and Environmental Science. I graduate from NSU,  December 15, 2001. I actively participate in NSU Science Club and Sigma Alfa Iota. Some of my interests are playing guitar, photography, splunking, scuba diving, hiking, camping and watching movies.

This collection of wildflowers that my grandfather has photographed are  a short collection from his original set. This site  was created in honor of his interest in botany and skill as a nature photographer. Thank you and I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and I do.
