Girl in Front of 9/11 Mural Journal Entry (pg. 160)

The photograph shows the mural that has been created in remembrance of the events of 9/11. The mural in itself has an enormous amount of emotion poured into it. The photograph does the mural no justice in the emotion meant for it to show. 

I find the mural itself more moving because anyone can take a picture, but not everyone can make a piece of art like the mural. The person who painted the mural was moved so much that he/she decided to post something that anyone can see at anytime. Someone can take a picture of the mural, but you don't feel the total emotion and amazement as you would if seeing the mural for yourself in person.

  1. just because you might not have got the meaning tp the picture doesn't mean the mural had oodles of more depth

  2. I concur...... no but for real, majority of what was said I believe to a certain extent. I thought that the photo meant more because is added the girls. Assuming they are sisters, it resembled to me as being the twin towers themselves.
