World Trade Center

This is the tragedy as I saw it from the roof of my house in Brooklyn Heights, where I was living in 2001.
First tower burning Both towers burning First tower gone Both towers gone
Late afternoon of day two Flowers Holding on Painting
End of day two Evening vigil Sunset Day 6: Flag
Day 6: in search of survivors Two years later: firehouse door Five years later: twin lights

Unbelievable that you took those photos. I remember that day I sat stunned for over an hour in front of my TV.
