I created this shot during a series of workshops on "Studio Explosions" which I hosted at the annual "Focus" exposition in Birmingham (UK). I repeated the workshop for our professional body "The Association of Photographers" later that same year. Compressed air, as always, was used to launch light weight particles through a rig of broken pig pieces and coins. I used the computer too, but not to create the effect which was done "in camera", but to change the colour of the pig.
