metal smith

Poznan, Poland

 

I love this guy. He is a bit shy around the camera, but he agreed to take this shot a bit hidden. He is the last of what he considers to be a dying breed here in Poland. A metal smith who still does everything the "old way". He is holding an example of his work. It saddens him that what he has learned is beginning to disappear and being replaced by machines. Very cool guy. Check out those hands......they are not shy about work that is for sure!
