Description
The new World Trade Center, under construction in late June. On the lower right is a small circular building with stains on the roof. That is jet fuel from the crashed airliner - it was decided to keep that intact as part of the Ground Zero memorial.

Very beautiful capture Roxy
Wonderful capture!
Out of the ashes... beautiful capture my friend.
Great pic Hugs Susan~
Cool skyline (& sky). And I like the bright light reflecting off all the grids of windows - as if they were Mondrian paintings made of glass...
Beautiful and Hopeful! We have many skysrapers in Japan, but I feel American towers are more beautiful than Japanese.
i like the cranes atop the buildings in this capture Roxy, love the boat on the water and big ship in the back, beautiful manip to it.
Simply amazing work on this one Roxy, I really do love this surreal series
Great image.
Very nice. I hope it lasts......seriously.
A beautiful capture, Roxy! May it stand for another thousand years. Wonderful surreal look you've given this photo and series. Looking forward to more!
i see it the way seth does.out of the ashes.
Excellent capture,Roxy.
Great Capture Roxy:-))I wish to every people on this world a wonderful lifetime,free from terror-brutality and conspiracy:-))))))
A fantastic photo, full view is stunning
That's great in every respect !!
very great photo and pose work
I don't see the stains, but good info and shot.
FANTASTIC work! I'm not sure how I feel about rebuilding the towers on a personal level...it will be nice to have the skyline back when it's done. :)
I don't like the spill being left either...One great capture!
I'm afraid the terrorists will take the new building as a reason to attack it.
Of the same mind as Vyktohria - really not sure how I feel about rebuilding this. While the towers are a symbol of a great tragedy, they've also become an icon for what has slowly been taken away from us, intrusion, suspicion and paranoia. Anyway, it looks like a giant dalek with antennae to me. Lol. Nice image and postwork.
Awesome
I see you have turned to some photography while I was gone. Done a bit of that myself lately. In any case this is a wonderful shot. Look forward to seeing your work again.
What an image! It reminds me of the immense amount of activity I'd see in a hive or an ant's nest. It has the same sort of purpose as well...building something...expanding, repairing, renewing, recovering. And you have captured it brilliantly. I love the light and dark tones in this and the overall cool colors that lend additional solidity to the nature of big, urban centers in the USA...oh, such urban centers exist in Europe and other parts of the world, but there's a difference. The United States is a young country and so we don't have as much "old stuff" here. Well, we do, but the dominant culture here isn't responsible for it and dealing with it has proved rather problematic as far too much crap is involved with facing those implications. Ah...young countries and cultural arrogance...sounds like puberty to me! Anyway, I bring this up, because of those cool, blue tones...they speak of glass and refined metal. They speak of prefabrication and architectural dreams based on starting from scratch rather than adding to an accumulated architectural tradition and largely "single" cultural history. I love the manner in which you captured that because for all of the beauty (surreal and otherwise) that you've caught and brought out of this, you've also provided a rather accurate snapshot of a place, a time, a mentality, and a dream. THIS is an important shot simply because it contains so much, and will be of immense value, years from now, when someone much younger than we will be, can look at this image and see something strange. It'll be like me seeing pictures of the Sears Tower (I refuse to call it Willis) before it was finished. It was always a part of my life, but it wasn't always here! This shot has that same sort of historical value, and an artistic vibe all its own.
Very very nice!!!!!!!!!!
