Dear Fitliker.
Some of the photos of the wreck appear to have been taken down from the web, since the Scharnhorst wreck from WW1 was found near the Falkland Islands, however there are two small photos of the Scharnhorst WW2 can be found by searching BBC History World War Two The sinking of the Scharnhorst. by Norman Fenton 17th February 2011
You can read about finding the wreck by searching : Nyheter / Fant Scharnhorst Laagendalsposten.no. The Norwegian Navy ship HNoMS Tyr launched a rover vehicle after ship HU Sverdrup 11 had located the wreck arounf 100 nautical miles Northeast of the North Cape.
SMS Scharnhorst sunk Falklands 02nd December 1914
KMS Scharnhorst sunk 100 n. miles northeast of North Cape 26th December 1943.
Hope this helps.

Lance.
