Amazing picture, huh?
I don’t know if they had a wide enough lens for Hermann.

Some good photo here on the thread
The Germans were lightyears ahead on color photographs and color movies
It adds to the chill
[The Germans were lightyears ahead on color photographs and color movies]
I didn’t know that! Wondered why we were suddenly seeing color pictures, even wondered if they had somehow colorized them, lol. Remember that happening?
I saved 4 or 5 that had amazing backgrounds.
Thanks for posting. OMG. These are stunning and chilling. Der Fuhrer on board ship with the young woman...Eva Braun? I’m proud my father fought against this regime. Moment of silence for his buddies who never made it home.
Exactly! I think the color brings it home to us more so.
I saved that picture of Hitler and Eva on the deckchairs.
And - a moment of silence in honor of your Dad and all of those who fought.
I’m only about 150 pages into it (man is that thing dense, and I have read a lot of heavy history in my day). Still, it’s giving me a lot of information I never knew.
