My name is Mark. I am an Artisan Blacksmith / Bladesmith / Welder-Fabricator in Camas Washington USAWebsite: https://forgingahead.shop/

A few weekends ago I went along on a trip to 'The Australiana Pioneer Village' in Wilberforce with my photography group. I will put my hand up and admit that for the first thirty minutes I was thinking to myself "what the hell am I doing here..." and I had no idea what to shoot, no macro or seascapes to be had here! Then I opened my eyes and started to look around me. In the end it was a thouroughly enjoyable day and I came away with some interesting images, stuff way outside of my 'comfort zone'. This is Wayne, the friendly Sunday blacksmith who demonstrates how to manipulate hot, glowing metal and how things were done in ye olde days...
