The young blacksmith

[corporallouis]

This young man demonstrates the blacksmith's trade at the Highland Village Settlement here on Cape Breton Island. It's a unique museum that shows early Scottish pioneer life on our island with costumed interpreters and actual historic buildings brought in from various locations around the area. A very interesting place to visit.

Nice. A subtle HDR Merge I think. Love that the shadows are still present which gives it plenty of mood!

Really nice environmental portrait!

i bet this young man was more than pleased with the photo! neat to see young folks carrying on the tradition!

Very nice image. I'd love to see a study of some of his smithing tools in b&w, duotone, or split-tones.
