I am usually more interested in taking very close up pictures of small electronic items. If you are interested in close up photography have a look at this Instructable that bloomautomatic put together for that. On the other hand I have never tried to take these type of cool outdoor pictures but I think next time I am out snapping some pictures I will have to keep my eye open for some cool placement trickery like in these pictures!

"This shot was taken at the Perito Moreno glacier in the Argentine region of Patagonia. The 250 km2 (97 sq mi) ice formation is an important tourist attraction, and the sheets of frozen fresh water clearly offer ample opportunity for a little playfulness with visual perspective."

"This touching shot makes aiming for the top not such a fanciful dream after all. The most famous landmark on the Parisian landscape is the perfect prop to make this little girl seem like a giant standing some 324 m (1,063 ft) tall. The low camera angle and large depth of field do the rest of the work."

"Nova Scotia’s Peggy’s Cove provides the setting for this next addition to our list. This small rural community is nevertheless a busy tourist attraction, and its classic red-and-white lighthouse is major focal point for visitors carrying cameras. Believe it or not, it’s almost 15 metres (50 ft) high."
