The News Picture of the Year (Decade, maybe)

You'll mostly be aware that a plane belly-flopped into the Hudson River today. According to CNN, everyone got out alive, thank goodness.

A picture was taken from one of the ferries that was picking up the passengers, and it is absolutely stunning.

Thanks to Twitter, many knew about the crash a few moments after it happened. This is what Twitter is about and if they can monetise that, it'll be great.
