September Mourning is a memorial picture book and portfolio of over
fifty never before published photographs of the World Trade Center
and September 11th memorials. The photos, most of which were taken
from the vantage point of New Jersey, were shot by award-winning,
New Jersey based photographer Dave Rossi, and are combined with
details and reflections of the iconic buildings. The book begins
with scenic images taken in the 1970s of the distant towers from
West Orange, NJ. The pictorial continues with several award-winning
images Dave shot over the years including a 1980 aerial photograph
of the new Twin Towers before any of the other World Trade Center
buildings were erected and the last photograph he took of the
still-standing World Trade Center Towers in September 2001, from
Hoboken, NJ. The book centers on a surreal two-page panoramic
photograph of the downed buildings engulfed in smoke on September
11, 2001, which was shot from just across the Hudson River in
Jersey City, NJ, and includes a timeline of the events of the
morning leading up to the tragedy. September Mourning progresses
through multiple photographs of the ?Tribute in Light? memorial
light displays, the new One World Trade Center (Freedom Tower)
under construction and a cross section of memorials in New Jersey.
Pictured memorials include a city memorial park in Westfield;
county memorials in West Orange (Essex), Springfield / Mountainside
(Union); and the New Jersey State September 11 Memorial ?Empty Sky?
just across the Hudson River from Ground Zero in Jersey City, New
Jersey. Through the memorials in this book a story is told of
bravery, loss, and remembrance of September 11, 2001. A day that
affects every American. September Mourning? will make a valued
keepsake and historical rated ?G? artistic photo reference to pass
on to future generations. It pays tribute to those who lost their
lives, their families, and to the courageous Firefighters, Police
Officers, EMTs, Civilians, and other Rescue Workers who worked so
hard and laid down their lives not only doing their duty but also
for the love of their fellow man.
