After I had moved to Washington to work at the Patent Office, I brought some friends back to New York who had never been there before. Of course, the first thing they wanted to do was to go to the top of the World Trade Center. This picture was taken in February of 1983.
while visiting family in early april 2002, i felt truly moved by the power and symbolism of 2 beams of light.
This is a view from the ferry going out to the Statue of Liberty. It was labor day weekend, September 1998. I went back thru my NY pictures after 9/11. Found this one. It brought tears to my eyes.
Heading back home on the metro I had to stop and take these pictures... This is the view from the Pentagon City Mall.
This photo was taken on the night of September 11, 2004. The photo was taken from Church Street, facing directly into the void that once was the World Trade Center, and it includes the flag-draped World Financial Center and the tower of light.
This is the rest of the series of photos taken after a plane struck the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.
This picture was taken along one of the barricades outside the American embassy on Sept. 12, 2001. The flowers piled higher and higher and thousands upon thousands of people came to the vigil every night.
I took this picture when I was in fourth grade. We were on a field trip to Ellis Island and I was in love with New York city. Now the original photograph is framed on my desk. Please don't steal my picture! and God Bless America
We traveled to New York 30 March 2002 specifically to take this picture from this site. It is of course the WTC memorial light tribute as seen from Brooklyn. This image may be shown with proper credit.

Banner hanging over Ground Zero. Taken may 30.2002
Like everyone else, I was stunned and in shock, knowning not how to react, feeling a sense of helplessness that morning. I needed to do something, putting together this montage was something that helped, as the TV news echoed from another room. I did not take these photos, they were news photos I found online. I created the montage with them.
During my visit to ground zero in February I was waiting in line to go onto the viewing platform next to St. Paul's Chapel. I heard a clinking sound above my head and when I looked up I saw a set of metal mini blinds wrapped around the limb of a tree like garland.
This picture was taken from the apartment of a fellow co-worker who works in our NYC office. She was unable to return to her home, and rescue her cats, for 8 days. She was finally allowed in and her cats were retrieved safely, though suffering from hydration.
This picture was taken at the demonstration held at the square of Unter den Linden where many embassies are on Sept 14, 2001. The demonstration had been announced only eight hours before it was to begin. Word spread so fast that over 200,000 people attended, marching through the streets after work to come and show their support for the US. The slogan was "Wir Trauern - our deepest sympathy"
...I put the flag on the antenna of my car the day of...took it off a year later. Took the picture of my side-view mirror. 9/11 hit me hard. Thoughts of love and comfort go to those victims now gone...and those of us who remain.
I don't really have a story though my wife and I visited ground zero just before Thanksgiving 2001. We, of course were awed by the site where firefighters were still pouring water on the ruins. I shot a representative image of the times.
