I can follow the reasoning, and agree it is very important from a scientific point of view, but ... if those inventors/scientists and photographers of the first half of the nineteenth century hadn't experimented with the photographic processes, where would we be now? It's those people that made it all possible, so my money for the most important photograph, is on an image made by one of those chaps.

"The resulting striped cross shape you can see may not mean much to the casual observer, but to a small group of art critics it proved to be a revelation"

I've changed one word, but it's so true when we wonder at so many pictures that are chosen as works of art! :uglystupid2:

It's important as an image as it shows the structure of DNA, allowing the scientists to break the code of life.  :tup:
