Monday Mar. 11, I went to
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade to photograph the lights. They did not show in the photos, so Tuesday, I ventured into Manhattan for these pictures. Again the lights did not show, until I experimented a little bit.
Thursday, I again returned for more shots. To my dismay, when I tried to upload them from my camera, they were gone; all 64 of them!

Angel Circle
"Angel Circle" is located near the entrance to the Verrazano Narrows Bridge.
It's hard to imagine, but a couple of weeks ago, this shrine was hit by vandalism.
The Sphere
Tonight, April 13, 2002, The Tribute Of Light will be lit for the last time.
Instead of shutting down @ 11:00 P.M. it will remain lit until Dawn.
The other Memorial NYC created on March 11, 2002, the 6 month Anniversary of the tragedy, will remain.
The Sphere; with the Lower Manhattan Skyline as a background; with flowering tree as a foreground.
Momentos are already piling up as they do at every shrine to the fallen.
Flowers and flags dot the landscape as well as this T-shirt proclaiming
"United We Stand"
"9.11.01"
