Sometimes you just can't pass on the opportunity to take a great photo—even if you're flying a plane. Earlier this month, Delta captain Jerry Walsh snapped this picture of 1 World Trade Center's spire peeking out the clouds. On Wednesday, Port Authority shared the image, leaving everyone to marvel at its haunting beauty. It's truly amazing how something so calm can be so eerie.

Now go listen to Inspectah Deck shred DJ Premier's production on Gang Starr's "Above The Clouds."
