The Pyramids of Giza. The Great Wall of China. The Eiffel Tower. We know what these iconic landmarks look like in most pictures, but that’s often only one side of the story. Take a look at these famous places photographed from an unusual or interesting angle, and you’re bound to gain a whole new perspective on the world.
Torch View Of The Statue Of Liberty
We’re all familiar with Lady Liberty’s classic robe and crown, but did you also know that she has a sharp middle hair part and a finger weave? This cool shot was actually taken from inside the torch of the Statue of Liberty, looking down nearly 305 feet to the ground below. Her extended right arm alone measures 42 feet. You can also make out the inscription on her book, “July IV MDCCLXXVI” — in other words, July 4, 1776.
