My friend who worked from a mile and half from the ground zero. I want all of you folks know this. I could not take the photos. It's too damn depressing. All of those lives are gone. Our freedom and security was taken away from us. I'm from Minnesota and this still haunts me and will forever!! I was appelled when people took pictures of the ground zero. I couldn't do it!!! So I bought the photo of the blue lights replacing the tower. Because it will remember me of the positive future we will all have. Time to MOVE ON!!!! LET US REBUILD OUR LIVES TOGETHER!! Do not take pictures of the ground zero. That is what the terroist want us to do!! 2002-06-10 22:46:18 All of you taking photos I saw the "Here is New York" exhibition just around the corner from Guggenheim Soho in November 2001 and this image just hit me so hard. It's a wonderful meta-narrative presented here: a photograph of a text telling people not to take photos. I didn't go that close to Ground Zero, though I have been asked many times since my visit whether I did, as if somehow visiting New York so soon after the events of Sept 11 made it an imperative tourist activity. I had no intention of going to the site, and this image helped me to explain why when I got back to England. At that moment especially, when so much work was still being done to clear the area, it was not even a burial site: it was an open grave, the site of a still burning funeral pyre ... and I am of the belief that watching and photographing such things is at the very least ghoulish. thank you to the photographer who captured this open letter, and to the firegirl of New York City who so eloquently criticised the peering crowds. 2002-07-19 05:10:30 Photos I think that the photos of 9/11 are a good thing. They help all of us that weren't there a chance to see the pain you all are going through. They not only let us learn of the tragity that took place but of the heroism and selflessness that happened in the aftermath. I hope that everybody that was affected directly by these actions doesn't forget the rest of us here hoping and praying for them to keep on surviving!! God Bless.............

Living in the more or less peaceful culture that we do I think it's important for people to have the courage to take these pictures. It acts as a wake up call and a reminder that anything is possible if we are not careful and lets face the facts 9/11/01 is a day in history that with or without photos none of us who were alive will ever be able to forget! 2002-09-12 18:08:14 911DA Item Elements describing a September 11 Digital Archive item.
