Views of flashlight aperature through white typing paper.
Diameter of outer light ring is 7.9 cm. Diameter of flashlight
aperature (next ring in) is 6.8 cm.

Potato slab with no inclusion. Thickness is 2 cm. Top of sample
is 8 cm tall, 12.5 cm wide.

Same slab with no inclusion, but viewed from opposite side.
Thickness is 2 cm. Top of sample is 9 cm tall, 13 cm wide.

Photo 6.
Same 2 cm thick slab, same view as Photos 5 and 6, but with a quarter (2.4 cm diameter, approx 1.5 mm thick) inserted at a depth of 1 cm (in the center of the thickness). Note that the quarter is off-center from the flashlight aperature. Photo 7.
Same slab, same inclusion, but viewed from the
side shown in Photos 3 and 4.
Photo 8.
A 1 cm thick slab with no inclusion. Transmission is significantly
brighter, but the camera compensated so that the image is similar to
the 2 cm slabs. Photo 9.
Final sample. This is the data that your model should reproduce.
Slab is 2 cm thick, and is approximately 7.5 cm by 11.5 cm in
diameter. A round metallic inclusion (a dime) is inserted
1.5 cm deep in the slab (i.e. 1.5 cm from top surface of slab,
parallel to top surface).
The dime is approximately 1.8 cm in diameter and 1.5 mm in
thickness. Photo 10.

This is a view of the same sample as Photos 10 and 11, but with
no dime included. Photo 12.
