Reviews
This is a great collection of photos which Time considers to be the most influential ever taken. These are not necessarily the most famous photos (there are many books published with those), but for one reason or another these are photos that shaped both the art of photography and human thought. The photos range from the first photo ever taken to the selfie Ellen orchestrated at the Oscars a couple of years ago. Along the way there are some photos that some might consider unsettling, but that is often what makes a photo influential. The fact that a photo is able to elicit strong feelings and make you think is what gives these photos a place in this book.
