Very good capture of this somber scene. I can't imagine the emotion of the moment, when you were there. tigs=^..^=

That sky looks very beautiful and the empty benches gives one a sense of loneliness. Fine image and a very good entry for the contest Jimbob.

A moving and fitting image marking such a huge tragedy.

This site still leaves me with chills and it is a great entry for the contest and as a remembrance of those who died there. Good Luck in the contest, JimBob.

This image turns my thoughts back to that ever so horrible day. Your photo speaks to all who remember...and will never forget. A powerful image, so very well suited for the "Emptiness" contest, Jimbob.
