These autumn scenes come to us via “Quotidiously,” by Rich Holschuh of Brattleboro, who describes the photo blog as “a casual repository of things encountered nearby, whether at home or wandering about.” As a personal challenge, Holschuh takes all his images with his iPhone camera and presents them as-is - “no filters, apps, or editing, except for a rare crop,” he writes. We often run this feature in these seasonal sections.
A public face of the effort in Vermont to honor Native communities by permanently naming the second Monday in October Indigenous Peoples Day, Holschuh is a resident of Wantastegok (Brattleboro) of Mi'kmaq, Wendat, and European heritage and an indigenous cultural researcher. He serves on the Vermont Commission for Native American Affairs and as a public liaison for the Elnu Abenaki Tribe, representing them before governmental agencies. He works with the contemporary Abenaki community, partnering with a wide variety of other groups to provide outreach, build connections, and foster relationship.
