Classic photo or photos

These two photos are very famous and i could not decide which one to use as my first classic image on my blog. So i have placed both up. I chose Looking down Sacramento Street because of it's intense focus on the center of the photograph. The street lines the path down to the cloud of smoke and dusk, the building on each side show disaster in the area around, the people standing watching wondering what the future holds for them. This picture draws me in to look futher into what happened. I also chose V-J Day because of the love and happiness the picture provides for the person looking in. It is from the second world war with an unknown nurse and soldier who are celebrating the end of the war. The photograph is mainly focused on the couple kissing, with New York in the back ground and with the people walking by looking in all happy. The photo moves me.
