Today's History Lesson...memorable photographs

There are numerous photographs that have earned the tag famous: History and Memory: Iwo Jima, Kissing the War Goodbye, The Smiles of Diana, just to name a few. One of the most famous photographs of all time occurred on this day, September 15, 1954. The picture captured the sex appeal and mystique of Marilyn Monroe during the filming of The Seven Year Itch. "The scene infuriated her husband, Joe DiMaggio, who felt she was quite the exhibitionist, and the couple divorced shortly afterward."

Today's History Lesson...memorable photographs

Many Kodak moments are lost because of timing and the fact a camera was not available, often simply left at home. Then, there are those moments where a person just happened to be at the right place at the right time... with a camera. Some of the most memorable photographs scream loudly while others just take your breath away. Then, there are photographs that changed the world...or at least the way we look upon it anyway!
