Most Photographed Places in the World

If you're like me, when you're on vacation the camera rarely leaves your side. So apparently, a lot of people are like me, and Cornell University Scientists have been busy proving it. Using 35 million photos from Flickr, the scientists have composed a list of the top ten most photographed landmarks in the world, plus the most popular angle for photographing the landmarks. Yahoo! took it one step further, and listed suggestions on how to make your picture of these uber-photographed spots unique and special.

Check out the list and Yahoo!'s suggestions here (link no longer available). Plus check out my shots of two of the top ten.
