The title really helps give this piece more emotion.
I couldn't imagine that just a week later that building doesn't reflect them anymore.

Reminds me of a zebra.... Although once I read what it was about, I got that creeped out feeling. All in all, great photo.

Wow.. I don't even know what to say. It must be one hell of a feeling, knowing you took a photo like this. It's almost like a presage

It must have been bizarre to realise you took this when 9/11 actually did happen.
I like the title in context with this piece, it really brings a different feeling to the photo itself.

I love the angle of this photo too, nice shot.

myrnajacobs In reply to shes-electric [2006-09-14 19:27:45 +0000 UTC]

It is bizarre. At the time I just thought it was a cool image, but later it echoed what was left of the building even. Yikes.

shes-electric In reply to myrnajacobs [2006-09-15 07:09:35 +0000 UTC]

It is a rather ghostly looking image.
Really surreal and weird..
Then even more so when you realise what it's of.

Either way, good work

myrnajacobs In reply to Gilez16 [2006-09-14 16:05:57 +0000 UTC]

thanks. In some subtle was I think black and white of the towers was reflective of how people felt about them. Apparently enemies of the USA feel the 'money towers' symbolized all that is evil about my country. And those that are pro, feel they symbolized the greatness of our country.... and perhaps they are both right.

Violence is not the solution.... ever!

Looks like op art.

Looking closer it also reflects like twisted and bent facade.

myrnajacobs In reply to photoart1 [2006-09-14 16:08:21 +0000 UTC]

When I took it ... having no idea the Towers would be gone in a weeks time, I thought of op art. Now I see a whole different thing.

This is one of those pieces that gives you a chill just looking at it. It shows such abstract beauty. Promises of what could have been but no longer is. So many lives changed in a moment, so much innocence lost. You have captured something that can never be replaced.

nice that u took this as a memory and glad u weren't there on 9/11 who would ever have thought that would be one of the last pictures taken of the tower ....

myrnajacobs In reply to steelangel [2006-09-12 02:51:36 +0000 UTC]

I know. It was strange when I was there, the towers were so tall and large when I got close that I went for the reflections as a shot. I took about three or four images in that area and only two have the actual towers and aren't so good.

I need to look for mine - they are photos - gosh knows where they are ....but am glad they are etched in my mind, was pouring ground level then I went up in the elevator, ears popped and remember when doors opened sun was shining that was a wierd feeling ....will never forget it
