The Blacksmith

I have been experimenting with the processing of this image of a blacksmith in the Farmer's Museum in Cooperstown, NY. It looks great in monochrome or sepia too, so I may upload an alternate version. The museum consisted of many outbuildings, most of which were brought in from around the surrounding countryside. The blacksmith's shop was completely authentic, down to the last detail. The docent was in period costume. He was about to start working on the parts to make a 1700's era pistol.
