Old news perhaps, but interesting nonetheless. It makes me wonder if anything any of us creates here will ever be valued so highly many years down the road. The Pond-Moonlight is one of the first color photographs ever, created by Edward Steichen using the autochrome process.Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

I'm not really in a rush to have any of mine bring in big money!
It would seem to me, that one has to be dead in order to become famous :scared:
If life was fair, Elvis would be alive and all the impersonators
would be dead.

LOL @Newbie ... yeah, that unfortunately is usually the case. I would love mine to bring in a fraction of that while I am still around to enjoy it. I am luck to get $1+ on the stock photo sites when someone buys usage rights. ::sigh:: @ Tunde: There are many wonderful photos through the years. Here are some links to some of them: http://www.newseum.org/pulitzer/ http://www.life.com/Life/lifebooks/100photos/excerpt.html http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/lib/aptree.html http://pictopia.com/perl/gal?provider_id=59&bid=227&process=dynamic&name1=metadata/category__&value1=Famous%20Photos http://images.google.com/images?q=famous+photographs&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=safari&rls=en&sa=X&oi=images&ct=title
