CAIRO: Egypt's Giza Pyramids were the top vote getter in a study commissioned by Truprint Photo Company in the United Kingdom. According to the study, British tourists photograph Egypt's ancient monuments more than any other location on the planet. Following the pyramids was Big Ben in London, the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Statue of Liberty in New York. Carolyn Dawkins, of photo company Truprint who commissioned the research, said in a press statement that “it's almost impossible to take a bad photo of the pyramids. “Other landmarks need to be snapped at the right angle at the right time of day. Think how often a picture of the Eiffel Tower can look like a strange hat on someone's head.” The Pyramids earned 20 percent of all votes, followed by Big Ben with 17 percent, the Eiffel Tower at 15 percent, the Statue of Liberty at 14 percent, Sydney Opera House, 13 percent; Taj Mahal 11 percent, Rome's Colosseum 7 percent; Leaning Tower of Pisa three percent; Great Wall of China two percent and Elvis's Graceland with one percent.
