X-ray

THE UNDERLYING STRUCTURE REVEALED.

Nick Veasey makes X-rays of various objects in his custom-built studio, which has thick concrete walls and a heavy lead and steel door. Because of the limits of the size of X-ray film, Nick assembles the images of larger objects from separate scans. He also takes the items apart to scan each piece and get a level of internal detail that would otherwise be impossible. For the Boeing 777 shown above, he made approximately 500 scans of individual components. Click on the image for a larger version.
A skeleton that was used for training radiologists, is the source of the human elements. Some Photoshop composition and manipulation is part of the process. http://www.nickveasey.com
