Snip from photographer Brian Loube's intro to a series of images titled "9/11 3D":
When the first Tower collapsed, something told me to just hold my camera over my head and shoot. I'm still surprised the pictures came out at all, because I hadn't set the exposure or focused the lens.
After the disaster, for two months I worked with a Red Cross program making hot meals at a local restaurant for the Ground Zero rescue workers. During that time, many people who saw my 3D slides were moved by the immersive quality and wanted to own them, which inspired me to print an edition of antique stereoscope-format cards. When I wasn't working in the kitchen, I was at my computer scanning and retouching the photographs that make up these 12 views.
Should I make a profit from the sale of these pictures, I plan to donate a portion of it to The Bowery Mission, a non-profit organization providing food and shelter to homeless Americans in downtown New York City. If you receive this set as a gift, please consider making a donation to a hunger-related charity.
