The editors’ description of the cover: "American Photohas devoted the heart of its September/October issue to an 18-page oral history of 9/11/01 based on the recollections of the photographers who risked their lives to cover the story. Though there was no shortage of iconic images we could have used, in this case, we felt less was more. The somber black and white image (shot by NYU student Yoni Brook) projected a reflective calm and quiet emblematic of the story we were telling. After much internal discussion, we opted to remove all cover lines apart from the minimalist one you see here."
This is a good photo or cover because it is
environmental and it shows everything. They show one person in the center of
the photo all alone around the ruins. It makes you feel sad because in this
photo it looks like he is the only survivor. And the light was a good
light, and also the black and white.
