On September 11, 2011, I was one of more than 40 photographers that took part in Project 9.11, sponsored by the Professional Photographers of NY State (PPSNYS). The project was merely to capture a day in the life of people on the 10th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks.
One of the photos I took and submitted was chosen in the Top 10 of the more than 400 photographs that were submitted. The photo shows the detail of mourning bands on the badges of several officers lined up in formation. It was taken at a memorial service held by the City of Rochester to honor all the first responders....police officers, fire fighters and emergency medical technicians....that lost their lives rushing towards the disaster as everyone else was running away.
The Top 10 photographs are shown on the PPSNYS website, and are all truly works of art.
A winner will be selected among the Top 10 and will be announced at the Photo Northeast Convention in Woodcliff Lake, NY in March 2012.
The other photos I submitted for the project are shown below.
