Comments:
It is difficult for me to express my feelings of what I witnessed
on September 11 and during the weeks that followed. I have seen
no one single image that depicts the truth and impact of this tragic
reality, but it is the whole collection of images taken that tell
the true story-one not only of loss, but also of complete selflessness
and compassion. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to
open a visual window of these events for the world to interpret
and reflect upon. - Robert Stolarik

comments:
"The strength of the magazine category was capturing the emotion
of the victims and the professionals that have been trained to save
lives but who were watching hopelessly ...you can see through their
eyes that there's nothing they can do...it's not about an inanimate
object, it's about the emotions of the people who were there....I
hate ground zero. ...It's not about a place, it's about the people
who experienced it." Joe Elbert
