It was dark in October.

| 3 Comments

It was October 2001, the company moved to a temporary office on 21st street. I went out onto the roof after sunset and shot some pictures of the surrounding buildings. This was no Woolworth building anymore. We were in the heart of the Flatiron district again and nobody knew how long we would need to stay in the temporary office before returning downtown. The office never moved back. One of the shots is facing downtown. Where there used to be the towers, in October there was only a smoke cloud and the bright s shining for the rescue workers removing what was left of the World Trade Center.


Both photographs were taken using my friendly Leica Minilux.

most terrifically beautiful night shots, I envy you having rooftop access in Manhattan.

oh, there are some stories about me and some roofs in Manhattan. I will need to tell the stories here later. Some of the buildings are like secret mountains, how could one live here and not try to scale them?... ; )

Jörgen recently sent me the book "invisible Frontier" which is also about hidden and not so hidden places in New York...
Very, very interesting...
: )
