Dear bokajsen2-ga,
The photograph was taken at the top of the Empire State Building in
New York by Vincent Laforet who is a photographer with the New York
Times newspaper.
He held an exhibition in 2004 and this picture was part of the

"Caption:
?EMPIRE STATE?
Deke Johnson, left, and Tom Silliman worked 1,385 feet above street
level to repair the electrical connections of an FM antenna atop the

deck imagined that they were the ones at the top of the world. 1/19/01

I?m not sure as to what you exactly mean by ?good resource for photos
like these? but these commercial photographic libraries are a good
staring point.
