Giles Duley is a dead man walking.
On 7 February 2011, while on foot patrol with US soldiers near Kandahar in southern Afghanistan, the British documentary photographer stepped on a pressure plate buried beneath the road, triggering an improvised explosive device.
The blast blew off both of his legs, one above the knee and one below. Shrapnel tore through his left hand, arm and torso.
