Artist's Comments


The ones that didn't make it
The ones that will never forget it
The ones that will come back to see it
The ones that will never let it happen again

The ones that planned it
The ones that did it
The ones that take pride in it
The ones that will always try to do it again

All those make ground zero what it is
All those cast a shadow of both light and darkness
All those are two sides of the same human race
All those are what make us what we are

This is an important piece for me. I feel I captured something deep, and I know that it was hard for me to actually take this shot on location.
A dark shadow standing where the "World Trade Center" use to stand. The "World Trade Center", New York City, which was destroyed in the September 11, 2001 attacks, by terrorists.
Never forget!

wow. i think my heart stopped beating and i stopped breathing for a moment. i've seen so many shots/expressions/views/thoughts on this, and many have hit my core--but this, for perhaps a reason i can't even explain, literally just like made everything within my stop.

much like i feel this is capturing.

it all just stopped. froze.

my apolgogies for the long comment, but i couldn't just walk away without saying a thing.

[Music is what our feelings sound like.]
:iconthetelevator:
I'm reminding on this day. I was speechless and I couldn't believe that it was real - but it was and is.

Greatful interpretation, Gilad. You have the words and pictures for feelings which no one other (are my words correct?) has.

Music is bigger than words and wider than pictures.
