this has probably been discussed here on the tubes more than once, but no matter...
Was thinking, what do ya'll think are the most famous/classic climbing photos? What comes to mind are the likes of Norgay on the summit of Everest, Sommervell (Norton perhaps) on Everest in '24(?), the RURP belay, Jeff Lowe on Octopussy, Gullich soloing Separate Reality, and numerous others I'm drawing blanks on. Lets see 'em.

Many many Rebuffat ones are classic. In the pop culture US climbing context the Bridwell/Long/Westbay NIAD pose stands out.
