blacksmith, celte

Pumping iron

The barbecue grill briquettes look a bit more modern, but this blacksmith looks like he stepped right out the Celtic village as it was 2,000 years ago.

Although still showing part of the Celtic Weekend, this shot was not taken at the site of the Roman baths in France (2009-09-19), but at the site of a reconstructed Celtic village a 100 metres away in Germany (2009-04-30).

  2. My Dad was a blacksmith but used some sort of air compressor in his forge ... this looks like hard work.

  5. Suddenly, 'pumping iron' has a totally different meaning. Looks tough!

  7. Fascinating! The Celtic guys must have been really strong, I suppose. Nice 'people in action' shot.
