This image is the product of 2 disasters: one natural, one wholly not. 15 years ago, on #September11, 2001, Lieutenant Michael Redpath was a firefighter in Ladder Company 169. When he arrived at the World Trade Center, both towers were down, and the area looked “like a nuclear winter,” he said, with “totally empty streets, white dust covering everything.” Lieutenant Redpath, who’s also a photographer, took a few pictures that day and more over the next 6 months, documenting the cleanup operation. He didn’t show them to many people and stored the negatives in his basement art studio. But when #HurricaneSandy bore down on the Rockaways in 2012, the salt water transformed his images into landscapes from another planet, as if nature were reclaiming dominion over that unnatural event. “There might be some firemen who don’t think it’s a good idea to show them,” said Lieutenant Redpath, 53. “It was a horrible thing that happened. I don’t want to flaunt anything, but I do want people to remember what happened.” Some of Lieutenant Redpath’s photographs are being exhibited at the @rockawaybeachsurfclub, through September 23.
