Brooklyn Bridge looking west

One day in 2002 I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge with my 2 little kids. We stopped to take photos on the bridge. I had just started to shoot film again with my old camera and had loaded up a black and white roll. The bridge was pretty empty, as it was not too long after 9/11, and the bridge was less crowded in general back then. In the photo the youngest son is squatting over on the side, I bent down to be more eye level with my other son who wanted to try the camera.
