Vadim Makhorov and Vitaliy Raskalov are two of the preeminent ‘rooftoppers’ in the world. Together they are On The Roofs; the duo gained notoriety earlier this year when their GoPro video of them scaling world’s second tallest building (Shanghai Tower) went viral.

The Sifter has previously featured their amazing exploits (see here, here and here), and what distinguishes these two from many others is the quality of their photography. They have a great eye for composition and they truly capture unique views never seen before.

Below is a brief overview from their most recent trip to New York City. You can see the complete gallery on their website here.
