Ha, made you landscape folks click this. Surprise! its pictures of people.

Side note. I find it strange and a disappointing sign of the times that America's greatest tragedy has been converted into a play ground for tourist and a Westfield shopping mall. Selfie sticks as far as the eye can see. Did my best trying to avoid selfie takers.

Jorge,
This set strikes me far more than the "untitled set" for the following reasons:

-I go back to NYC 2-3 times a year and am looking to move there next year.

-As a current police officer, every time I go to the 9/11 memorial, I am overcome with grief and usually end up bawling my eyes out.

-I too am disgusted by the selfie sticks, the noise made by all the tourists while I silently reflect on the lives lost...it truly is disrespectful and apalling that people would turn such a moving monument into a chatting ground.

As for the photos themselves, #2 takes the cake for me...as the moment is perfect, the man with the American flag is clearly an immigrant or comes from an immigrant background, and he interacts so well with the man missing an arm who clearly comes from a different background. The image shows what NYC and the Great American Experiment are all about.
