At an open air market in Prague, in the Czech Republic, various artisans plied their craft while selling products on the street. This blacksmith worked from an ingenious set up and explained his work as he executed the steps of forgin metal products.

This reminds me of a photo shoot I had when in photography school! Ever been to Old Sturbridge Village, MA?
Street venders are always fun to stroll around. :-)

love that little town and the quaint New England scene it involves! There were plenty of them in Prague, from bakers, to blacksmiths, to artists of all kinds, crafts people, a veritable visit to what must have bee a typical middle ages, medieval market place.
