June 23, 2010: Beauty is only skin deep

Or is it?



Pin-up girls photographed in x-ray. No clothes, and not much in the way of flesh either, but plenty of skeleton in full view. Insert "boner" joke here.

Love the shoes!

Her spine looks odd

scoliosis

She's got a thumb off!

that's one hawt patella

There's a fine line between sexual and medical.

Pron for freaks.

Know what she's got? She's got bone structure. When I was her age I didn't have any bone structure...

(what movie?)

prolly why she's sitting down?

When I saw this on Boing Boing a few days ago, the self appointed experts in the comments there seemed pretty sure that these images were illustrations and not an actual x-rays for various technical reasons that I can't remember. But it had something to do with the way that real x-ray images look.

mebbe they used them thar newfangled scanner things the gubbmint gots at the airports

My Dad broke his rib on their last holiday but one.
He brought the x-ray back (well, why not?)

Mum went round to Grandad's and said, "Do you want to see our holiday pictures?" meaning to produce the x-ray.
Grandad just said, "Not really" which spoiled the joke but made me laugh.

hahahahha
that is funny as heck.

You know what?

It's TOTALLY irresponsible to irradiate people for the hell of it. I'm calling --- whoever it is you call to report gratuitous X-raying....I used to know who that was, too....


dammit!

It's not "for the hell of it" it's for ART! and Naked art at that too!

I fully support it. Then again I'd support setting kittens on fire if it meant more naked chicks.

Mmmm.......Puppies.

The garbage disposal in our office kitchen is broken. I wanted to make a sign to put above the sink saying, "Please don't put kittens down the garbage disposal," but I'm new here and I don't know how people would take that.

only one way to find out ...

Zen is right as usual. Stick a cat down the disposal and see what everyone says. Then you'll know if the sign is a good idea or not.

It's just that I've discovered over the years that people don't like to be told what they can or can not do with their kittens.

Every kitten a wanted kitten.
Spay or neuter your pets!

OK, I'm surprised no one has posted this yet. http://www.nickveasey.com/

This guy is a photographer who uses x ray. Check out his galleries and blog. The xray of the airplane took about a year, IIRC and was made up of hundreds of separate exposures.

Wonder what the X-ray dose she got to get that shot? Prob not a good idea to keep trying to get the picture right.
