Landscape and Still Life Photographs

Photographs of landscape, the sky and still life subjects, including a moonrise over a village, a river under an overcast sky, a single pepper and the Earth seen from lunar orbit. A photograph belongs here when the cited article names a landscape, the sky or an object as the subject. It excludes portraits and news photographs. These photographs, taken from the 1920s to the 1960s, use light, tone and a plain subject to make a lasting image, and one of them changed how people thought about their planet. The group follows the subject as the cited article names it and not the camera, the film or the photographer.
