Default LIFE photos on google

LIFE magazine has unveiled millions of exclusive never publicised photos from it's archive in a deal with google... I thought there'd be a lot of people interested here.

The photos are very large and awesome quality. Check out the colour US Navy photos in the 1940s section.

Also try searching for something like Hitler, and check out the best colour photographs of the third reich you've ever seen.
