I didn't know pastries (berliners) could speak.

Well it is interesting how only red tones managed their way in an otherwise greyscale image.

This print looks like it was made in Agfacolor, a color film process where colors tend to be more pastel than the kodacolor process that was more popular around the world. If you carefully examine the background of the picture, you will see that the smoke isn't just grey, it's blue toned, that the fire burning in the background is orange, that there are subtile greens and browns in the building, and that the soldier not holding the flag has definite skin tone color on his wrists.

I don't think photshopped, but it definately was airbrushed. The soldier at the bottom has a wristwatch on his left wrist, in the original picture he had 4 more on his right wrist. Spoils of war.

I checked your link Brian, that also is not the original picture. If you want to research the image and send us a link to a page with written details on the original photograph (photographer, type of film, etc), I'd accept the above picture as having been colorized from a B&W image. About the best you can say of the pic at the link you've provided, is that the picture at your link is less cropped than the image above. FYI, B&W prints can be made from color negatives in the darkroom as easily as color can be added to a B&W image using photoshop, you just use B&W photographic paper instead of color. You can't know for certain whether or not this picture was taken using Agfacolor film without such data as I requested above. Of course, if you note my first comment, you'll see that all I wrote was that this 'LOOKED' like an Agfacolor image. That's because I've seen hundreds of pictures (and a couple of foreign films) where the images were developed using that process. The color tones of this image match what I've remember from my personal past experience, but I don't mind being proved wrong...

brian is right about the photo being edited, as hardhead said in the original the fellow in the lower right has additional watches on his right hand... also this particular pic has been scanned from a print version... likely a post war print version, as it contains evidence suggesting a color halftone printing process (popular 30 yrs ago)... its difficult to tell due to the poor quality, but your more than likely both right... agfa color was popular in the region in 30's and through the war... but the pic is undoubtedly edited, the color is undoubtedly added during post processing as color photography was out of the question...
cheers...
