Another excellent photo that so perfectly captures the emotion you wish to express...

Great shot & HB to your Dad!!

EExcellent. Yes, today is indeed a day for reflection. A lovely, introspective shot here Andreas.

I too, have been remembering this sad and horrible tradgedy today. This is a beautiful shot. I love the atmosphere. Rocky and hard, yet misty and soft. Stark and lovely. Excellent.

Beautiful shot, so eerie and haunting. It's almost impossible to get a good photo on such a foggy and overcast day, so that earns you extra cool points in my book. As a side note, from an American to a -- well actually, I don't know what country you're from -- let me warn you: don't believe everything you hear about 9/11. Our government has been exploiting the tragedy for political gain for the last 5 years and they show no signs of stopping. At this point it's almost impossible to separate the truth from propaganda so I say it's wise to be suspicious.

What a lonely and sad image this is. One of those things you expect that comes with a feeling of great sadness... (sniff)

Beautiful photography, exposure, and perfect title.

Very delicate and misterious atmosphere my friend.. Always surprise me with your artistic Eyes. Beautiful choice for today I am so sad also remember that. Hugs.. and I hope you enjoy your holidays

I believe you captured the mood just perfectly. Yes, everyone around the world was impacted by what happened on 9/11. But, life must go on. Keep up the fantastic job. Love your work. Aloha

lov it......sorry I had'nt commented on your fantastic work lately, but I view it all the time.takes time but I had some today for ya, you still my fav. keep clickin'

Making an amazing work of art, out of (what could have been) a tree standing alone somewhere. Thank you for being such a thoughtful person. :)

The fog eventually lifts, the darkness disperses, the sunlight does return. In the meantime, though, the world may seem a very bleak place, indeed. I must agree to disagree with ACS-001, for while there is surely plenty of propaganda (on all sides of the issue), the facts do speak for themselves, and loudly. A willingness to obtain information from many diverse sources, as well as a capacity for critical thought is required, however. That is (seemingly) too much to ask of the multitudes of people who enjoy having their information as they have their lunch -- cooked up quick and handed over fast to be gulped down as they speed off on their way to "more important" things. Excellent, thoughtful composition and commentary, Andreas.

Dearest Friend. Thank you for your lovely words and the healing power they deilver from someone so far away. The photo is beautirul and so appreciated. Soon God will put an end to those who are ruining the earth. and man will find the peace and happiness he waited fo long for. HUGS!!

Unusual but still splendid !

Lovely misty time.......

mystical!

Beautiful and deep!

Indeed, somehow or other it touches us all, directly or indirectly. Whether we believe everything we hear or we don't, thousands of people died that day - that is the truth!

Somber mood effect of the solitary tree contrasted against the enveloping mist. Also, a most poignant message on this day of remembrance that will be etched in our memories forever.
