[Photo, Food] Dinner tonight

The Art of Meat had these wonderful pheasant breasts in and as I hadn't had pheasant in ages (and had never cooked any myself), I took two. They were already wrapped in streaky bacon which did a wonderful job of keeping the meat moist but I unwrapped them to season the meat generously with pepper and a little salt. I just pan-fried to the point I wanted them and served the lot with sauteed potatoes and a baby lettuce salad (not pictured). This time I had the time to clear some space and set up a light for a photo, too:

An awesome shot (in more than one sense) showing how a bullet behaves when ricocheting. Apparently, they linked the triggers (of the gun and camera), otherwise this would be a very lucky shot indeed. Too bad it isn't available in higher resolution.
Have a look at the rest of his stream, there are some other cool highspeed photography shots.
