I just discovered this collection of about 100 photographs from WW2: http://saturnic.livejournal.com/174828.html
There are a few from after the war as well, but mostly it documents the events between 1934 and 1945. History seems so much more alive and closer when it comes in color.

It's a very diverse collection, with photos of all kinds: Of war and peace, happiness and sadness, love and hate, pride and shame, horrors and festivals. But most of all it's a collection of people of all kinds. A majority of the nazis were not so unlike you and me. This is important to remember if we don't want to repeat history.
