Amy also trains her lens on the smaller pieces that may be overlooked with a project of this magnitude. Through “The Lens: Viewing the 9/11 Memorial,” readers of The MEMO blog can share some of the unique vantage points captured by Amy.

On the 10th anniversary of the attacks, families gathered at the Memorial and, for the first time, touched their loved ones' names inscribed in bronze. A day later, the general public entered the Memorial, returning to the World Trade Center site after 10 years.
