Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

A completely new resource for me is a six-year-old effort at awarding honors for taking pictures on September 11, 2001, and its aftermath---The Best of Photojournalism 2002. The Internet Archive has never heard of these web pages before, so I don't know when they went up online. Almost the whole batch is unfamiliar to me (and where they are familiar, they are all part of the same entry,) which leads me to think they are of recent public vintage.]

A particularly dramatic entry is that of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, called "Collapse," but they lose credibility hypothesizing about what it says is not a bird in the following image. It is unlikely to be a fireman, as the record is mute about such a thing.

Ten minutes before it's collapse the charred opening of the North World Trade Center Tower frames what appears to be a bird soaring through the air six blocks away. Others say it's the body of a helmet, boot, and jacket clad firefighter whose angle of descent spread over several blocks on September 11, 2001
