9/11 Memorial From Dusk to Dawn Time Lapse

I set out early that morning to set up this time lapse and that all familiar and unavoidable somber wave of nostalgia washed over me upon my arrival.

As my camera shutter "clicked" away capturing a images every few seconds for this time lapse I felt it apropos as I sat behind the Colgate clock and watched the large hands "ticking" it's minutes in reserve, taking me back to a time when the Twin Towers stood strong and indestructible in manhattan sky line.

The Tribute in Light is an art installation of 88 searchlights placed next to the site of the World Trade Center to create two vertical columns of light in remembrance of the September 11 attacks. It is produced annually by The Municipal Art Society of New York. It initially ran as a temporary installation from March 11 to April 14, 2002, and was launched again in 2003 to mark the second anniversary of the attack. As of 2013, it has been repeated every year on September 11. It had been announced that 2008 would be its final year, but the tribute was continued in 2009. On December 17, 2009, it was confirmed that the tribute would continue through to the tenth anniversary of the attacks in 2011, but continued again in 2012. As of July 23, 2012, plans are underway for the National September 11 Memorial & Museum to assume the lease for the MTA property used during this tribute, and to begin transitioning operation of the tribute from the Municipal Art Society to the memorial foundation.

The two beams cost approximately $1,858.56 (asuming $0.11 KwH) to run for 24 hours. There are 88 spotlights (44 for each tower) which each consume 8,000 watts.

Bon Iver - Hinnom, TX Lyrics

Fall in
Fall out
Fall along

In the first of light
Past the Noachide
Bodies wrapped in white

Stranded every pain
Baby, pasts are slain
"I got outta La Grange"

In Hinnom
All this time
With your heart in mind
Didn't you edit?

In Hinnom
Go, the least
And the precious feast
The in-vetted

Sand, it starts to steal
Dirt and ice imbed in cheeks
In the potter's field

Solar peace
Well, it swirls and sweeps
You just set it

Strangers scattering
Nether passage in the wind
Off pennant tension ring

Armor, down
On the wettest ground
Not to vet it
