Description
The "black" in "blacksmith" refers to the black fire scale, a layer of oxides that forms on the surface of the metal during heating. The origin of "smith" is debated, it may come from the old English word "smythe" meaning "to strike" or it may have originated from the Proto-German "smithaz" meaning "skilled worker."

Another fine close-up Mitch. Love how you take ordinary/everyday elements and turn them into beautiful photographic subjects. Well done.
