Very interesting. I can see why people might question the photo because it was so perfect artisticly. You couldn't compose a more dramatic composition. To think that this was a random photo, taken on the spur of the moment is simply amazing.

Capturing a photo such as that one is being in the right place at the right time--in addition to being a great photographer. Some times one gets lucky and other times unbelievable lucky.

Re: WWII's Most Famous Photograph
Does anyone know if the film of the same flag-raising was done at the same time the photo was shot?
