This picture inspired me by it historical meaning of glory and victory.

The main modif are : darker and more redish overall along with the flag that sticks out.

I think that the red could represent all the blood dropped by all those valorent soldiers who fought in this battle...

Anyway enjoy en feel free to comment.

p.s.: original photographer was Yevgeny Khaldei

This is a particularly beautiful picture for me, as it shows the USSR in its true glory, as we fought along side them against the greatest entity of evil the world has ever known to exist.

What a great role they played it was.

Don't bug me because:
I know the USSR was allied with Germany at the beginning of WWII and helped to invade Poland, I'm talking about later in the war ( preferably post Stalingrad :D )

Well, when the USSR was allied with Germany, there was no threat or incentive against the Germans, and Russia NEVER has gone or will go to a war offensively... its army solely exists for defense, like it's supposed to. When the Nazi's invaded the USSR, it was a matter of defense for its people.

However, the Nazi's weren't ENTIRELY bad (just about 99.9% bad).
If you've ever seen or read of the hellish conditions the German people were living in, you'd know why WWII was necessary. The Armistice of WWI caused the worst living conditions possible for the German people, and the only way to get any money, food, shelter or anything back (because they had absolutely NOTHING), was to start another World War.

But yes, their actions during the war were unacceptable, no matter the argument given in its defense.
