The “Gritty” – incorporating Canon IXUS 100IS photo sample
The words “prod” and “bottom” initially leap out at you. We can only apologise for the lewd tone of today.
“These batteries are ‘gritty’. I got so excited I damaged them while tearing them from their plastic womb. They were part of the http://xtreamer.net/ parcel. The camera is a Canon Ixus 100IS. ’12 megapixels, 6 of them working’. It’s a fine and sexy camera: very small form factor and – usually – rather good pics” – ‘An anonymous gentleman from Denmark’.

Ooooh, very cinéma vérité!
And, going by the lighting, very possibly a contender for Dogme 95 status?
I bet the damage is highly symbolic of something too (although I think the “tearing them from their plastic womb” is possibly a little too obviously courting controversy, just for the sake of it.)

He appears to have torn them from their plastic womb with a lump hammer.
