Very neat that someone is keeping this craft alive. Even neater that he encouraged you to get even better position for your pictures, that he answered your questions, and of course that he made you the hanger.

Horseshoes use propane nowadays and some don't even form shoes but buy them ready made. I loved the fire and the pounding of the hammer and the swoosh when the hot iron was put in the water. Great series. I am glad you were there and the blacksmith was gracious enough to invite you in.<br /><br />Is today Canada Labour Day? Happy Holiday.

I have a similar hook made at Kings Landing Historical Settlement. I was doing the same thing as you were - taking photos of the blacksmith as he was demonstrating making things from the forge. He offered me the hook when he was done. :) I've not used it yet! Great photos!
