Description

Please consider the following photo for inclusion in your archive. The photo of my wife Danielle and my 5 week old son Hudson was taken by me seconds before the debris cloud from the first building collapse engulfed us.

The three of us took cover against a concrete bench in Battery Park City as we saw the Tower begin to collapse. As the debris cloud rapidly approached, my asked me "are we were going to die?". Because I wasn't sure if we were going to die, I stood up and took the photo- in case we were "found" afterward.
