The Horses of Newport, RI:

Did you know “the horse is a domesticated, odd-toed, hoofed mammal?

Did you know “female horses, called mares, carry their young for approximately 11 months, and a young horse, called a foal, can stand and run shortly following birth? They reach full adult development by age 5 years.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse

Did you know “the modern domestic horse has a life expectancy of 25 to 30 years? In modern times, Sugar Puff, who had been listed in Guinness World Records as the world's oldest living pony, died in 2007 at age 56.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse

Early Morning Frost:

I shot this image of these frost laced bushes during my sunrise visit to Wayside Inn, Sudbury, MA.

Did you know, “frost is a thin layer of ice on a solid surface, which forms from water vapor that deposits onto a freezing surface?” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

 Did you know, “frost forms when the air contains more water vapor than it can normally hold at a specific temperature? The process is similar to the formation of dew, except it occurs below the freezing point of water typically without crossing through a liquid state.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Did you know, “the ice crystals of frost form as the result of fractal process development? The depth of frost crystals varies depending on the amount of time they have been accumulating, and the concentration of the water vapor (humidity).” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Did you know, “frost crystals may be invisible (black), clear (translucent), or, if a mass of frost crystals scatters light in all directions, the coating of frost appears white?” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Did you know, “the most important aspect of frost in relation to plants is its determination of the length of the growing season: the period from the last killing frost in spring to the first killing frost in autumn, with reference to the tenderest crop plants?” - https://adamsfarms.com/gardentips/facts-about-frost

Did you know, “plants likely to be damaged even by a light frost include vines—such as beans, grapes, squashes, melons—along with nightshades such as tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Early Morning Frost:

I shot this image of these frost laced bushes during my sunrise visit to Wayside Inn, Sudbury, MA.

Did you know, “frost is a thin layer of ice on a solid surface, which forms from water vapor that deposits onto a freezing surface?” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

 Did you know, “frost forms when the air contains more water vapor than it can normally hold at a specific temperature? The process is similar to the formation of dew, except it occurs below the freezing point of water typically without crossing through a liquid state.” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Did you know, “the ice crystals of frost form as the result of fractal process development? The depth of frost crystals varies depending on the amount of time they have been accumulating, and the concentration of the water vapor (humidity).” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost

Ways of My Ancestors – We are still here.

These images are from the 3rd Annual Odenong Powwow hosted at Amherst-Pelham Regional HS, Amherst MA. @jbdvart.

This portrait of Tracy Loving Medicine Eyes @tracyramos5 with her daughter Sophia Ramos, is one of several images from my heart felt photography project, titled “Ways of My Ancestors – We Are Still Here.”

The goal of this series is to highlight the beauty, spirit, & resilience of the indigenous people that are still here & all around us!

My inspiration has been nurtured from spending time in & collaborating with my Native American family & community, attending Eastern Woodland Powwows, events, & viewing the beautiful work of Craig Varjabedian, @craig_varjabedian_photo.

As a proud Black Native American with Nipmuc, Mohegan, Cherokee & Blackfoot lineage, I was honored to have been a photographer on this special day & allowed to take these images of our beautiful people!

You can find my work currently on display in the Springfield Museums’ Native American Hall, Springfield, MA. It will be on display through 2/2004.

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with Andre StrongBearHeart Gaines, Jr. @no_loose_braids, and Jenny Powers, Director of Science, to create this beautiful exhibit. It pays homage to my ancestors and the Nipmuc Community. Please come and check it out!

I’ve also created a SLIDESHOW titled “WAYS of MY ANCESTORS – We are still here.” in the same name as my photography project. I’ve posted it on my website, scottfosterphotography.com. I hope you enjoy!

The Red Tail Hawk of Newport:

Whenever I spot a Red Tail Hawk soaring in the sky or perched in a tree, I tell whomever I’m with, "Ahhh, it’s going to be a good day...That's a sign of good medicine to me."

Why? My Native name is Quanunon Menuhkesu, Nipmuc for “Strong Hawk.” This is the name I was given during my family’s Nipmuc naming ceremony. I am of Nipmuc/Mohegan, (mother’s lineage) and Cherokee/Blackfoot, (father’s lineage), decent.

Did you know, “the Red Tail Hawk is a bird of prey that breeds throughout most of North America, from the interior of Alaska and northern Canada to as far south as Panama and West Indies? It is one of the most common members within the genus of Buteo in North America or world.” – Wikipedia

Did you know, “Red Tail Hawks are large hawks with typical Buteo proportions: very broad, rounded wings and a short wide tail?” – https://www.allaboutbirds.org

Did you know, “most Red Tail Hawks are rich brown above and pale below, a streaked belly &, on the wing underside, a dark bar between shoulder and wrist? The tail is usually pale below & cinnamon-red above, though in young birds it’s brown and banded.” – https://www.allaboutbirds.org

Did you know, “the Red Tail is the largest hawk, usually weighing between 2 and 4 pounds? As with most raptors, the female is nearly 1/3 larger than the male and may have a wingspan of 56 inches.” – https://www.chattnaturecenter.org

Did you know, … “the eyesight of a hawk is 8Xs as powerful as a human’s?” – https://www.chattnaturecenter.org
