30 Photos that changed the world article

The first photo I looked at was number 8, Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima. This photo was taken during World War Two during the battle of Iwo Jima. It is easily one of the most recognizable pictures of WWII if not of all time. I liked how much detail is in the picture without there being any color. The second photo that I chose to look at was number 11, Earthrise. It is a picture of the earth rising above the moon. It is one of the first pictures taken of the earth from the moon. It is important because it shows how small the earth really is compared to the rest of space. The third photo I looked at was number 30, Tetons and the Snake River. I thought this photo looked amazing. Its just a mountain and a river but it looks awesome in black and white. It doesn't need color to be cool. My favorite part about it is the lighting. The sun is coming up behind  the mountain with the clouds looks really cool and lights up the whole valley and river.
