Artist's Comments

Time to get serious here. This is an offering from my archives, hence the actual initials in the bottom corner.

Self-explanatory, one of those "Never Forget" messages.

In honor of the unfortunates involved.

nice, I like the fact that the towers are in the reflection.

From where I live, I can see that skyline in the distance...the towers will always be in my memory. Very powerful.

Glad you like it. :hug:

And you are so right. Even though I've never been to NYC--only as far east as Cleveland--the image of those landmarks standing will always be in my mind. Still a marvel, even when seen in movies or TV shows.

Thanks, KAM!

That really is deep and powerful, and the simplicity gives it a nice serene feel. Nice use of the reflection in the water-- it makes for a good metaphor of the reflections we make in our own life.

I can actually still remember where I was on 9/11-- I was on the bus and heard on the radio that someone had crashed a plane into the Twin Towers. Amazing how one can still recall where they were and what they were doing on that fateful day.

I was on my way to work when I got the call from my folks. It was a couple of hours after everything started, and they told me the towers were gone.

Now, I hate waking up and seeing the news on TV, but I just had to see this for myself. First thing I saw was the second plane. I was in a state all day...and I was in the Seattle area at the time!

I had to get across a crosswalk on the way to work when I noticed a small flag left in the street. I went, picked it up and put it somewhere safe indoors.

But I really didn't feel the full effect until after dinner that night. There, I just broke down.

And that's pretty much my story.

:hug: Thanks, Jen.
