Gray-level “camera” image.
Often used for segmentation and denoising examples.
Checkerboard image.
Checkerboards are often used in image calibration, since the corner-points are easy to locate. Because of the many parallel edges, they also visualise distortions particularly well.
Motion blurred clock.
This photograph of a wall clock was taken while moving the camera in an aproximately horizontal direction. It may be used to illustrate inverse filters and deconvolution.
Released into the public domain by the photographer (Stefan van der Walt).
Greek coins from Pompeii.
This image shows several coins outlined against a gray background. It is especially useful in, e.g. segmentation tests, where individual objects need to be identified against a background. The background shares enough grey levels with the coins that a simple segmentation is not sufficient.

Colour “Lena” image.
The standard, yet sometimes controversial Lena test image was scanned from the November 1972 edition of Playboy magazine. From an image processing perspective, this image is useful because it contains smooth, textured, shaded as well as detail areas.

Surface of the moon.
This low-contrast image of the surface of the moon is useful for illustrating histogram equalization and contrast stretching.
Scanned page.
This image of printed text is useful for demonstrations requiring uneven background illumination.
