## Prompt

```text
A dramatic photojournalistic street-level scene in lower Manhattan showing the World Trade Center during the September 11 attacks, viewed from several blocks away on a bright clear blue morning. The composition centers on the Twin Towers, with the left tower engulfed near the upper floors by a massive orange-and-black fireball, thick dark gray smoke billowing horizontally across the sky, and debris falling downward. The right tower stands adjacent with its antenna visible, partially obscured by smoke. In the foreground, exactly 6 visible bystanders stand in the street and on the sidewalk with their backs to the camera, watching in shock; the closest is a man in a light blue dress shirt at lower left. Surrounding the avenue are mid-rise city buildings, including a beige building with black construction scaffolding on the left, older brick and stone facades at street level, a tall curved streetlamp near center, traffic signs, and a dense urban canyon leading the eye toward the towers. Realistic documentary photography, high detail, natural daylight, long-lens compression, urgent historical-news atmosphere, sharp focus, no text, no watermark.
