Excellent action shot captured here!! I love how the glow of the material provides enough light for your subjects. As much care as they take in handling this, it surprises me that one guy is in shorts. :-)

@Steven: That guy was awesome, he just showed up and asked to pour with us. He was an iron worker in Mexico at some point in time and knew his stuff enough that the crew chief let him pour.

Hi Ralph, really love your body of work and the passion & thought behind it.

Let me add my 2 cents. Your response to Steven from Chicagoland, ie the backstory to this pic, transforms this into a very powerful image, filled with emotion, and really, should be the caption for this pic. Imagine what was going on in this guy's head - he walks in off the street and wants to pour, for old time's sake. Who says our work doesn't shape who we are? Please consider captioning your images. My 2 cents. ;-)
