Here are some of the best photos of the Twin Towers as they graced the New York skyline for 30 years. Since we’re coming into the 23rd anniversary of September 11th, I think it’s also important to remember and recognize the beauty and majesty of the towers. These photos range from hero shots to journalism to gritty street photography to fine art. It’s fascinating to see how photographers of different styles, from all over the world, came to New York City and incorporated these landmarks into their photography. #photographer #photographer #streetphotography #streetphotographer #artphotography #documentaryphotography #twintowers #september11 #history #nyc #newyorkcity

National Press Photographers Association, The Best of Photojournalism 2002. This book features photography from 2001, including some of the most important photojournalism of 9/11. It was never publicly available and I received my copy as a member of the organization. I was a college sophomore at the time. This book is interesting because it shows what photojournalists considered to be the best images of the events of September 11 and the following weeks. When I recorded this video in 2022, it had been more than a decade since I’d viewed the work and these are my thoughts as I looked through it. #photography #photographer #photojournalism #photojournalist #documentaryphotography #history #911 #september11 #zachdobsonphoto #foryou #fypツ

Wise words from David Lynch. This can apply to photography just as much as filmmaking. This audio is from The Fablemans (2022). #photography #photomagic #davidlynch #aesthetic #phototips #photography101 #photographyeveryday #zachdobsonphoto #greenscreen

Bill Biggart was the only journalist documenting September 11, 2001 who didn’t see another day. Photojournalists often rush to breaking news with little to no regard for their own wellbeing. It’s important that we recognize their service documenting the most important moments of our history. #photography #photojournalism #september11 #911 #history #news #foryou #neverforget

We’re learning about Indigenous photographers during National Native American Heritage Month. Wendy Red Star creates photography that is both humorous and poignant. Her bold colors & aesthetics grab your attention while the messages she conveys make you think more deeply about the experiences indigenous peoples have faced in the Americas for hundreds of years. An amazing artist that everyone should know about! ….. #photographer #photography #nativeamerican #nativeamericanheritagemonth #nationalnativeamericanheritagemonth #indigenous #indigenousart #indigenousstories #indigenousheritage #nativerepresentation #photooftheday #artphotography #documentaryphotography #wendyredstar

Photographer Stephen Gill takes us on a fantastical journey to another universe within our own world with his series titled Please Notify the Sun. As we travel photographically through a fish he caught in the Baltic Sea, what we’re actually doing is receiving a reminder that every living thing on this planet contains more beauty & wonder than we could possibly comprehend. #photographer #photography #science #nature #stephengill #photomagic #zachdobsonphoto #foryou #fypツ

You have to take a lot of photos to get a lot of good photos. Who cares if your ratio of photos taken to good photos is 5:1 or 5000:1?? Do what it takes to make photos you love! I didn’t know Steve before today but he put himself out there and was met with unfair and unkind criticism, so im sending good vibes his way! #photography #photographer #photomagic #photographyeveryday #zachdobsonphoto #foryou #greenscreen

I’m so inspired by Lee Friedlander and his confidence! He just does whatever he wants, seemingly without regard to anyone else (photographically speaking, of course). The first book he ever self published was a book of self portraits called Self Portrait. And it’s not like he was even famous at the time. He just wanted to choose a topic he knew he could never fet published through traditional methods.
