Multiple Views to Get to the Truth

Its the bird of paradise of course – aka strelitsia The orthogonal view as in radiology is key. yet those who have the knowledge of flowers would recognise the strelitsia by a single petal. This is part of the art of looking and seeing. Courtesy Ashley Davidoff MD. 13423 radiologists and detectives Davidoff photography

A sculpture of the crucifixion on the banks of the Salzach river which runs through Salzburg, Austria. A sharp edged wound, presumablly representing a penetrating wound, enters the right chest.
