15 photos of the most famous sights of the world from very unusual angles

Anyone who has ever been to the most famous tourist sites knows how difficult it is to get the perfect photo of these attractions. It’s almost impossible to take a good picture without capturing hundreds of selfie sticks. But the British photographer still found a way out of the situation and came up with an alternative way to shoot in order to avoid the crowd in their photos. He just started taking his pictures from the wrong angle.

The photographer’s name is Oliver Curtis. He talks about where in 2012 he took inspiration to create these photos. Then he visited the pyramids of Giza. “Not far from them I saw a newly built golf course, its territory was intense green,” Oliver says. “I found this visual sandwich of contrasting colors, textures and shapes intriguing ... thanks to my unusual location. I was standing next to one of the greatest miracles of the world, but the angle was not quite "right." "
