A low viewpoint like this usually would make the bike appear large, compared to the rider. I'm geussing that in the Northern Hemisphere, such a viewpoint works in reverse. Hence the tiny-looking bike. Try to take a pic from the stands next time, so the bike looks more imposing. Tut, tut.

I thought the comments in the Photo Information was a clue to the size of the bike. It is a mini bike, about 20ins from ground to handle bars! that is why it looks tiny.
