In a dive into some older posts on the Wetpixel forum, Alex and Adam discuss what makes an image iconic and truly memorable. They discuss the differences that can occur due to the viewer’s context, and how the profusion of social media channels has affected how individuals view and react to images, and that the circumstances around an image’s capture matter less than the image itself.
