Thanks to Willraja, the winner of the last two-week challenge, "Looking Up", we now have great pleasure in announcing a completely new challenge.
Show us your world from a bird's eye perspective. Climb a tall tree, go to the top of a tall building, find a ladder or even try camera-tossing. The choice is yours.

Here's my submission. Not what I really wanted, but I couldn't get access to the roof of the tallest building in town....

Taken from up a step ladder - a technique I'll be using in the future.
Was stood up by a female model today but luckily took this yesterday as a backup.
Comments and critique welcome.

That's an out-of-the-box entry, well a couple of them are out of the box, anyway.

I've voted for Alan, I like the way he's make something slightly unusual out of an otherwise 'ordinary' view.
(I think it's unfair to vote for myself)

Thanks! - and I only did it as a tongue-in-cheek entry. Still, if a picture solicits an emotion, then it's probably a good thing.
I've given Alan the next challenge, and I promise to shoot a new picture for it.
