New York - Aerials of One World Trade Center - November '11

Tosspot · #1 Posted **Nov 15, 2011, 6:31 AM**

I'd been wanting to take a semi-brief trip to New York for aerial shots of the One World Trade Center building before they top it off. These (excluding the very last) were taken late in the afternoon on Thursday Nov. 10 '11. I took over 500 shots while in the helicopter and have initially cut that down to 100 potential shots, and I'll cut down again a time or two more. This is the first set I've sifted through and edited.

Those are some damn nice pics!

Dumb question: is that Two World Trade Center under construction as well in most of these shots? I honestly think I like Two better than One, aesthetically-speaking.

I agree, the second one is definitely the better of the two.

new york skyline and bridges are my favorite in the world

i literally have lucid dreams i'm flying and seeing all of it from above (but since it's a dream alot of it is out of place or doesn't exist)
