Blacksmith Jim Ferrell working at the anvil in the smithy at the Dr Pound Historical Farmstead in Dripping Springs, Texas. If you are in the area this coming Saturday morning, the Austin photowalking group is visiting the Pound House at 8am. Come along and join us!
For the technically inclined...
My great-great-grandpa was a blacksmith of a small town in Illinois. I’ve long admired the skill these guys have.
Nice shot of him at work!

Thanks, David. Jim’s a nice guy to hang around and watch. He’s also great with the kids – my 12 year old visits fairly regularly for impromptu ironworking lessons from him!
