and effectively what it is we're taking these high-energy wavelength and it actually penetrates right through their body and anywhere where there's something dense very hard like bone the x-ray beam can't make it through we've all sort of taken like a flashlight and sort of shown it through our finger and we can actually see the red light coming through well effectively that's what an x-ray is we're just taking higher energy wavelength that we can't see with our eyes and it's actually allowing the areas where there's things like air or soft tissues the x-ray penetrates right through it and goes right through who shines through where as in place of where there's bones the x-rays can't make it through so they actually get left behind and that's what gives us like the white pictures of the bone because the film that's exposed on the other side soft tissues the x-rays have gone through they turn it from white to black whereas in Bones the x-ray doesn't make it through because it gets left behind in the person and therefore on the film on the other side it stays white
