MGMAT is hard =(

I think it should be D
The problem with the original sentence is "viewed up close". To modify the verb "viewed" we should use an adverb "closely" and not the adjective "close". "When viewed closely" would have been a much better option.
This problem has been repeated in all the options except for option D. Option D has corrected this error by using "closer viewing". Also, I don't see any other error in option D

Tough one!!
"Viewed up close" is correct in this case as 'close' can be used as an adverb.
e.g. Don't get too close to the fire.
I think the key here is the word 'reveal'.
Intent here in the sentence is that closer look reveals the details.
So, IMO D.
