A Few New Photos of the WTC on 9-11
Someone posted these to Reddit. A teenager was going through an album belonging to his great aunt.
The story and pictures are here: https://nypost.com/2021/04/27/unseen...ign=SocialFlow The Reddit Link is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/interesting...discovered_in/ Nothing really new, but it has an interesting angle on the collapse of WTC1 that gives a great perspective of how far debris was ejected from the building and a huge chunk is visible falling near WTC7. I've always said there are more photos out there. Someday we will see them all. The story won't change. |

Full album on Flickr:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/190109...h/50931313337/ Things I look for are: Dust cover on the ground after 1st, and after 2nd collapse. It appears that the North Tower collapse pushed dust further north than the South Tower collapse (no huge surprise, but it's interesting to see there was, at least initially, a visible limit to dust spread). Possibility of using shadows and sunlight to estimate time, at least relatively. Some of the images appear to be from later days. |

Your link terminates at a Flikr log-in wall. I joined Flikr to view the images and now your posted terminates at a flikr 404 nonexistant page link here... https://www.flickr.com/photos/190109...h/50931313337/ How can I view the new images? thank you |

The first time I used the link you supplied I received a 404 message that I needed to "login". I joined flikr and am fully logged in using the exact same link you supplied, and I'm now getting 404 messages stating 404 This is not the page you’re looking for. 2021-04-29T10:26:33Z-fb0fcb9f@server It appears the album you seek doesn’t exist. Here are some of today’s best photos instead: Mox Nix -I have only viewed two images from "My great Aunt's photo album" and both appear to be amateur grade images created by children with photo shop type software. |

The 404 message appears to be generated by the website flikr.

The NY Post link has them. Reddit has them.

I get 403, not 404. Different things.

get help now... what are you ranting about --- do you look at dates of stories?
if you have all your photos on flickr and not flikr, and have over 1,000, then they will be cut to 1000 if you don't pay - SO, but you can keep them on your own computer and share them - Does flikr have a limit like flickr does? You can pay to have more service... |

To be blunt the gist of the OP is that "New Photos" of 911 don't add much since they are similar to images already published. No missiles, no micro-nukes, no flashes from cutting charges. Just WTC1 burning with a big hole, the collapse, and dust cloud. I believe it is safe to assume that there are thousands more just like these.

only those who have reality based research skills can find the photos, which leaves out the fantasy based researchers know as 9/11 truthers, who are really 9/11 lies and assorted BS woo spreaders https://i.redd.it/24ytvi00ecv61.jpg darn is this blocked too - https://nypost.com/2021/04/27/unseen...ign=SocialFlow |

As confirmed by the OP, even if those pictures may have only been made public recently, they contain no new information. /thread

My best explanation for the 403 is that the publication in NYT caused a "slashdot effectWP", triggering Yahoo's excessive bandwidth usage protections, and in order to view the images now you need a paid account.
It might fix itself over time as interest decays. |

It may simply be that they are no longer available?
His main page is viewable - that I can't yet link to, and has just a handful of photos? |
