9/11 Post


Today in the wonderful world of Digital Mixed Media, we were asked to find powerful pictures of the events of 9/11.  I personally don’t remember a thing about it, since I was six at the time. Among the pictures that I looked through, I thought this was the most striking. There were a lot of photos of collapsing buildings, sad people, and explosions, but I thought this was pretty powerful too. It’s very surreal and fantasy-like, emphasizing the oh-my-god-I-can’t-believe-this-is-happening feelings that everyone had. The background is very clear, which emphasizes the harsh reality of what happened. It kind of looks like the end of the world, fitting since some people thought it really was. This ends my 9/11 post.
