I strongly suspect that the next magazine article pushing florals as the great trend of SS08 will send me on a towering rampage tearing it up, because I'm just a wee bit tired of them. Flowers, IMHO, look better in nature than they do on clothes, and Steven Meyers's floral radiographs have me nothing short of mesmerised- there are enough pretty pictures of flowers out there, but looking at them this way renders them strange and stark- unusual qualities for flowers to have- not to mention beautiful (which is much more normal, though not quite this way). Going here for a look at more of his work is strongly recommended, it's stunning...All images from http://www.xray-art.com/

Ahhh...ravishing. Florals for spring on clothes...nice, but not very original. Isn't that what every spring is about? Blooming.
These are Beautiful
Very Pretty...
Talking abt plants...heres something that is not form-centric (based on the looks of a thing)...Check out Methusaleh (A pine cone tree in California) and General Sherman ( A Giant sequoia again in California)...Both trees are beautiful beyond your wildest imagination.
awesome!!! i thought they wer xrays...they look a bit out of this world.
Really really beautiful...
The Clothes Horse: I know, spring and flowers just go hand-in-hand, but somehow this year has just taken it over the top.
Pufflet and Susie: Really glad you think so :)
The_Undead: I've seen pictures of both trees, they are gorgeous.
Fashion Tidbits: I'm really bad at science, but somehow I think radiographs and x-rays are the same thing..so you're probably right.
Very alien, especially the lily. It's almost like they're dead - it feels like a floral postmortem.
Beautiful.
I am loving the influx of all things floral at the minute!
Haha..Miss BFH... I have caught you...Neither of the trees I mentioned are beautiful in the way you speak of...but they are beautiful in a different way...a mysterious way that is more than skin deep.
