Generally, the appeal escapes me. But I was struck by the boxing gloves. They looked like a pair of children’s mittens.

Something about these photos is relaxing to the eye.

I absolutely love X-Rays! I should have been a radiologist. I prefer the ones with the black background out of this display. I actually had a friend who worked for a vet and gave me the old X-Rays from various animals. I save them year after year in hopes to one day find a bunch of light boxes on sale so that I can do an art installation piece. I also have some of my own images of my body and teeth. So, I know what your saying Ms. Dee but I guess the beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
