I think this picture of the Williamsburg Bridge half lit up is classical. Lower Manhattan had no electrical supply and it was that way for a while. To me it looks like a part of the city lost it life supply and now it dark and dead. In comparison to how bright the other side was shining it represents life and warmth while lower Manhattan just looked cold and as if there were no vegetation there. In fact when there was but I’m quite sure, they weren’t sure themselves if they really were living. For how could they be living in a 1st world country and have this happen to them when the hurricane wasn’t even a category 5. Even the waters look dead on the other side. I think this iis a real photo. Here is an image of what happened on my block.
