Fantastic photos!
Here's another couple of iconic images. I especially like the smaller one of Soviet soldiers writing on the walls of the Reichstag!

Just a bit of Historical input , the famous SPW photo is from the 3rd "Swedish" company SS Panzer Auf Abt 11 of the Nordland Division , the body to the right of the vehicle is believed to that of Swedish volunteer Ragnar Johansson,
