Floral Radiographs
For 40 years, University of Michigan professor of dental radiography Albert Richards has been focusing his x-ray machine on flower blossoms:
In a radiograph of a Cup and Saucer Campanula [below], that portion of the saucer that lies beyond the cup registers clearly, but it would not have been seen by an observer nor would it have registered on a photograph. A drop of water can be seen at the lower edge of the saucer and to the right of the stem.
