For photographers, being in precisely the right place at the right time is a pleasant mix of luck and skill. It's great when the two combine to make a well-composed, storytelling image.

Shooting from above at an event like this takes a lot of commitment, diplomacy with arena officials and sometimes can only be done with a remote camera. Kudos to the photographer for a well-executed photo.
