You've got it right (almost). Just change your code by this:

RewriteRule ^photo/(.+)$ photo.php?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA]

Hmm that's not working for me either :/ It's giving back a 404 – Greg May 10 '12 at 16:52
What URI did you try? Does this URI `/photo.php?id=l0el2rwbFj7kGG3` directly work from your browser? – anubhava May 10 '12 at 17:05
Do you have mod_rewrite enabled/loaded in `httpd.conf`? – anubhava May 10 '12 at 17:21
Oh great to know. Please don't forget to accept this answer :) – anubhava May 10 '12 at 17:43

try this more easy one:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^photo/(.*)$ photo.php?id=$1
