Since early childhood Don Dudenbostel has been interested in photography as an art form. He found a way to combine art and science for a high school science fair project in the 1960's. With the help of an engineer Dudenbostel built his first x-ray apparatus from a variety of discarded parts. The system uses very low penetration, soft x-rays that do not totally penetrate the soft, delicate structure of the plants. It is now forty years later and he has refocused on x-ray imaging. Due to advances in science, he is now able to capture even more of the delicacies of his subject matter.
