Wow Brigid. Your comments on the 9/11 video we watched were spot on. I never really thought about it the way you did until now, but you are right. The way the video was put together really helped get its message across. Photographers and photojournalists really played a huge part in conveying the tragedy of 9/11. One thing that Brigid said really summed it all up; "The fact that photographers were able to capture the second plane, poised to strike, was proof. It was not a horrifying nightmare that we could all wake up from. It was not an accident. The pictures all those photojournalists took that day were proof, and for that I'm grateful." Those photographers and photojournalists took a tragedy and turned it into a reality. They never get enough credit for that, so thank you to all the photographers that day, and thank you Brigid for bringing this to mind.
