Macro on Monday - Guess What

gold star Once again a full house for last week's scrambled photo. Congratulations and a virtual gold star to Adrian, Sue Garrett, Keith, TexWisGirl and ImaBurdie for identifying the farrier / blacksmith. The photo was taken years ago at one of the local craft fairs where local craftsmen / women demonstrated their skills and sold their wares.

This particular blacksmith has won many competitions and seemed to specialise in ornamental iron work including some magnificent large gates for country houses.

  3. based on your clue, it must be the remaining pod from a milkweed plant?

    and that blacksmith would find plenty of work here in texas with ornamental gates and fences. :)
