The competition theme for July is ‘View from above’

It could be from a mountain, a building, a ladder, an aircraft... basically any photo from an elevated viewpoint. Quite open to creative interpretations of the theme too.

Good luck!

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
Entries and discussion on a single thread, please.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Winners should update the Competition Wiki (it's easy)
Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible.
If after 7 days of a competition ending, either a winner has not been declared, or the winner has not created a new thread, a new thread should be started, with the topic set as whatever the topic was 10 years ago, based on this wiki.

I've just checked the wiki and we have had a similar theme before, but it was back in 2018 - long enough ago that I don't care! hehe

Dawn flight over Happisburgh in North Norfolk in the autumn.
Just above freezing and sat in an open cockpit behind a propellor is another level of cold!
We were on our way down to Little Gransden in Cambridgeshire to have a magneto re-wound. Sadly, a dying art.

Had a trip up Mont Ventoux and found this old tower, with a decent backdrop including the Alps loitering on the horizon. Nice day for it and not as windy as the sales brochure made out.

Roof of the 871 ft 900 North Michigan building in Chicago, from the 94th floor Cloud bar at the former John Hancock Tower. Taken a couple of years before Putin went all in, but quite a large Ukranainian community in Chicago apparently so most likely related to that somehow. Nice bar, window seats not for those not fond of heights (like me frown). Taken with a potato and slightly shaky hands.
