What Remains

Uploaded: September 13, 2005

Description

...of the Twin Towers at the WTC site, in April 2005. It was actually covered up pretty well from the curious, and I was shooting with a 200mm lens only, so some obstructions got in the way. I thought I'd leave that in as part of the 'local color.'

Had to leave this image, go away and come back Goshka. It is hard to put into words my feelings when I see this. But most certainly those people who lost their lives will never be forgotten. #1833089

Wonderful heart breaking shot, Goshka. I'm glad to see this. I'm not sure why, but I had thought it was all cleaned up and the new tower about to go up. #1833315

An image which made me sit quiet and remember the day which changed all of our lives - still can't comprehend it happened.

My thoughts are with you Goshka - ddu #1834816
