it is a picture i took of a very messy painted sign I made "free our Firefighters, NYC Heart and Soul" ...context: the firemen were arrested downtown when there was a conflict on "digging" I stood on the highway and held this hastily painted sign and then I ran over to Ladder 3 and laid it on the ground against "Capt. Pat Brown's Bench" ...I was wrestling feelings of low self esteem so i put it on the ground -- the next day someone had placed on the actual bench and it stayed there for weeks...I took my video camera and filmed it -- this is a video grap. The firemen were freed and the conflicts resolved...Thank G-d. best, Sue B. Troy
Although, I grew up in Jersey City, across from the WTC and watched them being built and I work in Jersey City. My sons had not seen the Twin Towers. This is a photo I took of one of my sons as he posed in Liberty State Park. He wanted to be photographed with the towers in the background.
This is a photo taken on sept 3, 2002. In the distance there is a boat spraying water, colored Red White and Blue.

I took this picture of my wife and son on the observation deck of tower 2 on the 16th november 1999.When we got to the top we were the only three people up there and could not believe how peaceful it was compared to the city below,the only noise we could hear was from the aerial on tower 1.It is hard to believe it has all gone.

This one's unique... guess were's this?! Inside WTC, I had just got through security. I was thinking "This guys don't play while on service". Day: 09.09.2001
In late September I photographed this memorial that had been set up in front of the firestation near Lincoln Center on West End Ave. and 66th St. in NYC. The firemen on duty let it be known that they were from Westchester, filling in for the New York firemen who were attending funerals and memorials. What I did not discover until later, was that all of those who were on duty here on the 11th had perished and that the New York firemen they had been referring to were replacements themselves.
Wall of posters for the missing and dead.
i used to work the nightshift in manhattan so i would often hang out around there after work with my friends and i just loved looking at it at night so i took this pic standing under them i took many shots of the towers but this one is my favorite enjoy it and remember JOHN LAGUER
I took these photos while on vacation with my family in August 1983. It was the first time I had ever been to New York. I was so fasinated with everything, especially these unbelievable skycrapers. I am so glad I took these pictures.

This picture was taken on our last visit to the World Trade Center on August 24, 2001 - just 18 days before the towers came down. We were in the Windows of the World for brunch and decided to capture a shot of the breath taking view looking down the side of the building on the east side.
A Marine color guard raises a large American flag into the Afghan sky at the American occupied Kandahar International Airport December 17, 2001. The flag had previously flown on U.S. ships in the North Arabian Sea during Operation Enduring Freedom. The flag was brought to Afghanistan after the airport was secured by the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) Dec. 13. The flag was from Ground Zero in NYC.
