Photos like that can add perspective to the animal. I like the first one especially. I would probably like to take some traditional photos, ie right up behind, but some of these are also great as they give proper attention to the trophy, close up ad filling the photo with the hunter behind so he can also be part of the shot, but not dominate it.
If a human was right behind the head of a springbok he would fill the photo instead and the hunter would have this "tiny" head at the bottom.
These photos are nice to give the perspective to the animal.
I agree that it is silly to purposely sit back just to make a trophy look "bigger" and it doesn't fool many.
