What the Sphinx looks like from a height and other photos of famous places from an unknown angle (15 photos)

23 October 2022

Pizzeria pyramids, The Beatles before crossing the road and other rare photographs that captured places and events in perfect different from what we are used to seeing.





A lot of things in the world depend on our point of view, namely therefore, changing our view (in the literal sense of the word!) opens up something new. We are used to seeing people, sights and even whole cities from a certain angle. What will happen if look at them from a completely different angle? We have collected 14 pictures iconic places, events, people, but they have one feature: they all look a little different than in books, on album covers or in social networks, because these pictures were taken from an unusual angle.
