I don't  want to get all heavy about the One Year Anniversary of what is now just referred to as 9-11. The purpose of this page is to simply jog the viewer into remembering a few things. Where were you on that fatefull 9-11 day? What did you think the moment you first heard and saw the images on TV? How did you feel as the planes hit the World Trade Center buildings, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania feild? We as a nation and a world watched in utter disbelief , stunned into a collective gasp of surreal horror.

The reflections of flames and billowing smoke shooting up into the sky, the towers collapsing with thousands running for their lives still haunt our minds eye. You couldn't help but feel the dread of those unlucky souls that didnt make it out. To imagine waking up, having breakfast with your family and then going to work only to be faced hours later with the option of jumping off NYC highest skyskraper, because the alternative is worse. Fortunately many were able to get one last panicked phone call out to loved ones before being consumed by the carnage. I shot these photos on 9-12 and am dedicating them to preserving the memory of the thousands of victim's who perished and to the brave men and women in the NYPD and FDNY that died selflessly trying to save them. — Bobby Zeitler
