I tend to stay low-key about the anniversary that today is, simply because - it's horrific, and I need to own that part of it that is and will always be my experience of that day;apart from politicians abusing it for their own gain, apart from the fighting over the memorial, separate from the ranting conspiracy theorists that I have to pass on my way to work weekly if not daily, separate from the trinket, 9/11 "commemorative" book, and fake Louis Vuitton bag sellers capitalizing on the tourist traffic of the location....
Anyway, found myself on a "shimmy" dance cruise with some high school friends. Had my camera along, and had a *great* view of Manhattan and the two beams shining in remembrance. Put my camera on 1600, noise reduction, and shot away.
