One World Trade Center: The Top of America

Beautiful. I'd be curious how this shot was taken. Typically if you look to the top/bottom you can see the connection point where the camera was resting but I can't seem to find it in this pic.

I was able to zoom in and find my apartment building all the way down at Coney Island.

Look up at the tower, and zoom in on the Moon. Incredible!

Hmm.... There appears to be a water-mark box around the moon. Wonder if it was inserted as an Easter egg.

Reminds me: The days before 9/11 I played with some webcams that let you pan and zoom a cam and take turns if others were using it. There was one on the Empire State because I used it that day... There may have been one on a wtc tower, and I may have tried it too... Already down? Can't remember that well. Anyone else remember that? Or that type of webcam? Later on they got better, but have not looked into them any while. (I'll need to look into it.)

These are always really awesome. But for the love of god, invert the controls. Or maybe a button to switch between methods

I've never been to NYC but this is beautiful.
