Thanks Dan! I took several pictures obviously but I like the way hands look here and the motion of the hammer. He was dressed-up because this was a demonstration at a fair.

Great Image.  I love the way you caught the hammer in mid-air, about
to strike the metal.  I also like the look and texture of the anvil.
His jeans look brand new;  that seems just a bit discordant to me.

Brian & Ann Thanks for commenting. I assure you he hit the horseshoe every time. That hammer had about a two foot handle but he was holding it up by the head for control and there was wrist snap at the end of the swing.

Ann I may have been shooting in burst mode but I'm not usually that smart.

Sounds like an interesting project. That's an excellent image, although
it does look like he's about to hammer his index finger...

I had the same thought(s) ... not his finger.. but it looks like the
hammer would come down on the anvil, not the shoe.

Don, did you have "continuous" on?
