25 JANUARY 2016 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: The operator of a small one person workshop that makes heavy chains for boat anchors drags bags of metal into his shop to turn the metal into chain links. The metal for the chains is heated until it glows red and then it's pounded into shape. The Talat Noi neighborhood in Bangkok started as a blacksmith's quarter. As cars and buses replaced horse and buggy, the blacksmiths became mechanics and now the area is lined with car mechanics' and blacksmiths' shops. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
