It may be a bit cliche but I find these two to be the most impressive.

This one for the sheer beauty:

The most touching for me is the pale blue dot, because I find it touches me deeply and is one of those pictures that ought to humble people...

Dang it. I read the first post, quickly found an image of Iodine crystals, and then scrolled down to see you beat me to it :mad:
