It's actually very beautiful being on a high-level floor of one of these when you're above the clouds.

I don't have any, I only visit residences in supertalls on a professional basis where it would not be appropriate to take a photo, and don't have any from cloudy days.

but I did manage to find a few of Dubai: http://cdn.c.photoshelter.com/img-get/I0000NExu2oj5LM8/s/750/750/SN-FOG-DUBAI-7.jpg http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2559360/Dubai-sky-Phenomenon-happens-twice-year-transforms-Arab-state-cloud-city.html

This one is from Instagram user Demidism who climbed 432 Park and got arrested for it.

@432ParkAvenue liked the pic. Unfortunate that the police didn't.

wow that's a cool sight. makes you almost feel like you're above everyone else ... perhaps a little more so than usual (if you're the one living up that high in these towers).

Yes! I went to school in Manhattan, and had a creative writing class on the 12th floor with amazing windows. Essex House building all foggy is so beautiful.
