The blacksmith

Shot in the amazing Openluchtmuseum (Open Air Museum) near Arnhem, in The Netherlands.
The “black” in “blacksmith” refers to the black firescale, a layer of oxides that forms on the surface of the metal during heating. The origin of smith is the Old English word smið meaning “blacksmith”, originating from the Proto-Germanic *smiþaz meaning "skilled worker".
