This is a photo-journal of my experience on 9/11/2001. On the day of the World Trade Center attack, I was living inside what is now known as "Ground Zero". My apartment, in this picture, is one of the buildings closer to the WTC on the left side.

I found myself shooting these photographs as the entire event unfolded. Running from the falling tower, I was evacuated to New Jersey on a tugboat from Battery Park.

This photo journal is my way of sharing my experience with other people. Please feel free to share it with others. If it makes a difference, if it reaches one more person who may take away something from it, I am grateful. If you feel so inclined, I would be happy to hear from you (whether it be your experience, or otherwise - and many thanks to those who have sent me kind thoughts and wishes through this ordeal).

After seeing these pictures, many people have requested that I make high-resolution prints available for purchase. If you are interested, please feel free to purchase prints by clicking the link below. The prints here are available through DotPhoto for personal use only.
