Iconic Images - 08-28-2008, 01:40 AM

What images or icons are significant enough for you to give you Goose Bumps? Things you may think have changed society/your country/the world for the better or worse.

One of those images for me is definitely this one. It was one of the first things to really open the worlds eyes to the issues behind this symbolism.

Although I wasn't there, it's crazy how much this picture changed so many lives.



I think I've never been more shocked in my life than I was when I was watching this on TV.



Everyone who knows the story of this picture knows why.



Happiest day of my life. lol


everything is relative and contradictory ~

It's definitely significant enough for me to give me the goose bumps and it changed society in an obvious and unprecedentedly rapid way.

I think this picture is one of the most iconic pictures for countless reasons.

They're taking the hobbits to Isengard!
