The 'BDJ; series: Alphabetti
A chance conversation at the British Dental Journal stand at an international meeting led to the idea of using the letters 'B' ,'D' and 'J' in different formats for the Journal covers. Each cover would feature the letters in a different media or setting. The idea gained momentum and in December 2015 the first pictures were taken. There were so many ideas for different pictures and these had to be narrowed down to a final 12, one for each cover in volume 221.
The photographer, Damien Walmsley, on the story behind this particular cover: 'The idea of using alphabetti came up during our discussions for this series of photographs of the BDJ letters. This was a fun picture to set up. It took a few visits to different supermarkets to find the alphabetti. Composing the picture with a spoon made for an appetising picture. Plus there was no wastage as my granddaughter Lily enjoyed eating the alphabetti after the picture was taken.'
