Eiffel Tower, Paris, France
The Eiffel Tower has been photographed from every angle in almost every conceivble way. If you take the picture to far away it dwarfs the surrounding trees and buildings and looks isolated and strange. The tower looses its detail. Taking the image this close gives a better sense of scale and captures the structure nicely.
