Hugh Turvey has coined the term xogram to describe his art, which is a crossover between x-rays and photography. He says “the only difference between my x-ray images and the photograms produced by the early photographic pioneers is the frequency of the ‘light’ used to expose the ‘paper’.”
The images are shot on conventional x-ray film, then scanned and digitally coloured. This kiss was displayed in Edinburgh as part of the Royal Photographic Society’s Light Works exhibition.






That’s an amazing image x #alphabetphoto

Wow, that is a whole new perspective on a kiss that I prefer not to think about while actually kissing ! Wonder what the message the artist is trying to convey ? Maybe, enjoy kissing while you can ’cause before you know it, you’ll be planted in the ground or burned to ash and scattered to the wind.! LOL Coolest X treatment so far !!!

That’s pretty cool! I’d like to try something like that. I wonder how I can get my hands on an x-ray. Hmmm.
