The Twin Towers

by Natalia

This photo represents the most important terrorist attack in the world. It was taken by the photographers of New York Time magazine and they won the Pulitzer Prize 2002. When the airplanes crased into the Twins Towers where a lot of people were working inside them. Also these buildings were in the financial and commercial heart on the global economy. For this reason the number of deaths was 2996 people. The fall of the Twins Towers  was a shock for the USA and the international community and the United States responded to the attacks invading Afghanistan. The American people were shocked that day. They were living a historical moment.

Hail in Mar del Plata

by Valeria

I took this photo a few months ago. I was looking through the window of my apartment when a terrible hailstorm began. Suddenly everything was white: cars, trees and houses were all covered by ice. This type of storm is not very common in Mar del Plata, it had never happened anything similar before.

Singing

by Máximo

My friend Nayla took this photo in January, 2009. There were three people on the stage. The three people were my friends Joel and Angel and me. I remember that the owner of that place invited us to walk onto the stage. We walked up to the stage and then we started to sing. I remember that we played an old song by Pappo Blues. While we were singing on the stage, my friend Nayla was recording and taking photos to us. After we finished the song, the customers of that place started to clap their hands and that was surprising! It was a nice nigth with friends!
