| description: | This image has come to be known as "The Scream Image". In Will Counts' book titled "A Life Is More Than A Moment..." his caption for this image on page 40 reads, in full: "As I saw Hazel Bryan's contorted face in the camera's viewfinder, I knew that I had released the shutter at an important moment. At this point my concern was with whether the lens was in focus, with the correct exposure for the uneven light under the trees." The Associated Press named this image one of the top 100 photographs of the twentieth century. |
