20 Historic Places Or Events Captured From An Angle You’ve Never Seen Them From
Thanks to the invention of the camera, people were able to capture some of the most important events of the last few centuries. Some of these pictures, like Charles Ebbets’ “Lunch atop a Skyscraper” or The Beatles crossing Abbey Road, for example, have become so recognizable, they’re considered to be rather iconic. But here’s the thing – a lot of these pictures have alternative versions that we don’t often get to see. However, things are about to get revealed.
Alternate Angles is an online community with over 134k members who regularly share pictures of historical places or events captured from an angle that we’re not used to seeing. Even if it may not sound like much at first, these ‘alternative angles’ often reveal the hidden sides of things that you normally wouldn’t get to see, and could even change the way you see certain things for good. Check out a collection of historical places and events captured from a different angle in the gallery below!
