9/11

..September 2010 New York..

September 11th, 2001. On my way to photograph New York fashion week. Off the highway from Brooklyn towards the city. Taken from a fishing pier. You could hear the collapse of the buildings.

I live 3 miles from the World Trade Center. I smelt the debris burn until December from my home. The smell I will never forget. For months it constantly hoovered over everything. When the wind blew in our direction some ash would build up over time on cars.

Many fliers were put up around the city looking for missing people. A man who lived a few houses away, worked at the World Trade Center, never came home. A candle was lit in front of his building that night. It stay lite for many months.

September 11th, 2009. Taken from Brooklyn near the Brooklyn Bridge looking towards the World Trade Center.

    A terrible moment in modern history, I’m glad you were on your way to fashion week at the time and not to close to the WTC.
