What I like about the Reichstagg photo is, the soldiers crawling around the edges of the roof, overhanging the precipes, and standing proudly in the background, make the entire scene look like the conquest of the gargoyles of notre dame. Triumph, but triumph over ruins.

I don't think that effect was intended, which makes it more powerful rather than less.
