9/11 Memorial October 25, 2011

We visited the 9/11 Memorial (Ground Zero) yesterday. A very moving experience. Unfortunately rain threatened and the sky was very grey. The photos in this gallery are record shots. Our schedule did not allow me to capture the scenes as well as I would have liked. Visitor Date/time passes must be obtained in advance and security checks are at least as rigorous as they are at airports. The last time we visited this site was shortly after 9/11/01. I had about 15 seconds to run over to the edge of Zuccotti Park to take a couple of grab shots. For the photographers out there all the images were captured with a Nikon D7000 with a Nikon 18-200 VR lens. Additional photos will be uploaded to this gallery.
