Original Message He creates amazing images of everyday items being hit by projectiles. Using high-speed photography, he can capture in stunning detail the moment items such as marbles and air gun pellets pass through objects.

Despite safety precautions, Alan has had a few close-calls when creating his pictures. "I have been hit by flying debris lots of times. It's mostly harmless, with a few exceptions. My face is always behind a Lexan shield and I am always wearing ear protection. Once it was hot in the garage and I had my shirt off. Got a few small cuts from flying glass."

Luckily, Alan has an understanding partner. "My wife Kathy is fine with my stupid hobbies. She gets a little worried when I try something especially dangerous, but she seems to feel that I keep trying to make things as safe as possible. I try not to hurry a new set-up like the air cannon and am always thinking about how things could go wrong."
