9/11 from my kitchen window

The clearest blue sky on an otherwise clear crisp autumn day. Five years and it's like yesterday. The movies are really not necessary to remember this one. Low res so I don't know how the sky will upload. It's obviously not manipulated.

The very last calm and quiet day that I ever had. That night I packed up and got ready to drive half way across the country for construction support back east.

One of my sadest days of my life.

A very powerful picture because it was taken from your window, so it has a real personality to it, and the knowledge of what was going on inside. Truly a staggering thought.

As one who felt the blast in Oklahoma City, I can only imagine what this must have been like, even though I've seen these images hundreds of times. A world-changing event.

Best Regards

Thanks all. Last night they projected spot lights from the sight as they have done each year at this time since the collapse. From here I could see two columns of light and as they shone into the clouds above it really made me feel like there was a heaven above.

This is the worst quality picture I have come across on PN. Click on larger and it is just brutal. it deserves a 1/1 but you won't see it so that is why I gave it a 3/3.

I guess I'll have to agree with Eppo on this one. This is probably the worst picture I've ever seen on this site.
Didn't see the rating yet, but I guess that if you are getting hight rates on this, they must come from americans (mostly from New Yorkers). And I'm sure that the ratings are more for "sentimentalism" than for aesthetics or originality.
After seing it "larger", it sure deserves a 1/1 rating.
