Twin Towers

Twin Towers
This is a view from the Staten Island Ferry on December 27, 1981. I took it with my brand new Canon AE-1 Program camera and 50mm lens.. Cropped from the original Fuji 400 slide film.

For The Sunday Challenge. Observing 911 with twins, two of the same or an archived picture of the Twin Towers.

Beautifully captured towers, Pappy; I love the golden sunlight reflecting off the buildings. I visited the observation deck several times and it was quite a view!
