Boy -- people have to be even more careful about sunbathing topless on some of those rooftop gardens... That's a powerful zoom! |

Amazing Cory THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS THE BEST!!!!! Thanks.
(I am recalling my interview at the top of the W.T.C. back in the early 80's with a Japanese Company....I went to interview for a graphic arts position and was asked if I wouldn't mind serving the men coffee every morning.....I told them the building was swaying in the wind too much and it gave me vertigo and walked out.....) |

Great stuff, and the video was interesting.
Though panning around on the image made me nauseous. Not sure why those kind of things do that...(I once tried to play Doom on a computer, felt the same way.) |

..... all us little ballerinas in class b.i.t.d. were taught...when you pirouette...try to note a solid point on the wall on which you plant your gaze for a milli second every time you spin....thus grounding yourself and eliminating the nausea....by merely turning your head away from the screen for a split second and noting a fixed stable point, say, for instance on the screen periphery or wall....you will return to stability....
or so they say
I have vertigo from acrophobia also.... can be incapacitating |

Look in the Hudson River just to the right of the pinnacle and check out the exact same tour boat chasing itself upriver in 4 iterations, one of which is missing its bow. The wakes are oddly truncated on two of the iterations as well. |

Yes, the bane of stitched images ... had the boat been travelling down-river (or the camera panned the other direction) they might have missed it entirely. |

I was looking for wake without boats (very cool) but haven't found any yet :-) Another odd thing: I haven't located a single plane in the air, though I see them on the ground at Newark... |
