Two different point of views

Sometimes a different point of view can make a photograph. These two examples recently ran on The Associated Press wire. The top one, shot by Petr David Josek, i's from the Prague International Marathon. The texture of the street and the rider's shadow made a nice feature. From the ground the photo would have been average at best.
The second picture, shot by Gautam Singh, is from the outside of a cricket stadium in Bangladesh after the match was called because of rain. The high angle gives you a better sense of the size of the crowd trying to get on the bus.
