One of the Life magazine photo books I read once began with an 
interesting thought experiment: Overlook the technical detail that 
movies consist of a series of still images and imagine if still 
photography had been invented *after* motion picture photography. Think 
about how amazed people would have been about the ability to freeze a 
moment in time.
