This was one of the photos I took when I first walked into the memorial site. Trying to avoid the real feelings I had, pretending not to remember the tragedy that occurred here.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe this is one of the new twin towers, either way it was a magnificent piece of architecture.

I followed this man down the street for a while, I waited for him to finish talking to the cop. I then asked the cop if I could take a picture of him and he said that he's not supposed to let people take pictures of him. Little did he know I already had one!

Walking down the street as a teenage girl you are genenrally hypervigelent. When a middle aged man walks up to you, you are generally very cautious and apprehensive. He started asking about my camera, where I went to school, what I was doing, and then he informed me that he was a photographer for the Oregonian! Upon hearing this news we talked a little longer and then parted ways, but then something inside of me said "CHASE HIM". So I ran down the street yelling sir until he turned around, then asked for his picture, said thank you and he gave me his card. This is my new friend Tom.

I don't know Kathleen, but obviously she is loved and missed. So many people died on that tragic day, this was my way of paying homage to all the souls lost that day. "In the darkness we shine brightest" 9/11/2001 I dedicate this project to all of those lost on that day. RIP Kathleen Shearer and all the other lives that perished. Gone but NEVER forgotten.

As I looked out across the water and saw this statue I was like "WHOA! That's a cool statue!" So I decided to take a picture of it. I think it's a fairly new statue, but it looked kind of old and rustic. Reminded me a little of some French sculptures I've seen before but this one was different. People kept calling it the 'Statue of Liberty' but I think that might just be a thing all the hipsters are calling it.

This was just inside one of the houses that was destroyed by the hurricane. In this house were also childrens toys and other family artifacts. The whole thing was a humbling experience. I really wish I new the history behind this photo. Thank you to whoever this soldier was, thank you for your sacrifice and service.
