Hello,

How can I write a sentence without using "bird's eye view" but meaning the same thing with "bird's eye view"? I tried several sentences but I'm not sure which ones are used and sound OK:

I want to see the view from above / from high above / from higher up / from atop.
I want to look down at the view from from above / from high above / from higher up / from atop.

I don't know if there is any difference between them, so they all sound OK to me. But since I'm not a native speaker, you may correct me or give another option to me except the ones above.

Thanks for your help!

They are all OK except "atop".
