Nick Veasey's work has been around and you may have seen some of it before but it doesn't make it any less cool. To paraphrase Nick, he likes to counter the obsession we have with superficial appearance by using x-rays to strip back the layers and show what is under the surface. He likes to challenge our automatic reaction to physical appearance by highlighting the inner beauty. We can't all have access to an x-ray machine like Nick but at least we can look at his photography and see ourselves and the world in a whole new light.

When I saw the last two, the first thing I thought was "mmmmm dinner" does that make me a bad human?
I saw the last one and thought ... bacon!!!
Unreal! I want an x-ray machine now.
I'm probably going to be in the minority here but ... I feel it's very gimmicky... Take any of the images above, would they still be interesting if it wasn't "X-ray"? You don't even have to worry about light...
Some of his works are partial photomanipulations with Photoshop and layering process
This is awesome! On a side note, that is a very young, dead pig... all of it's growth plates are still open and cartilaginous. Mmm pork!
