Default You have to see this to believe it!

Hi!

I plan to share several pictures of my weekend trip (to Agra and Bharatpur - India) here, but just couldn't wait to share pictures of the Taj Mahal.

Trust me, no picture can do justice to the beauty that Taj Mahal is! You actually have to see it to know what it is. This must have been my tenth visit to the Taj, but my opinion never seems to change.

Hope you enjoy them. As always, I look forward to your comments!

This is the most common picture of the Taj, but I bet you can't avoid this if you visit:
IMG_9778

IMG_9796

IMG_9818

IMG_9834

I was slightly unfortunate to have visited it on a very crowded time, and couldn't get inside it (you can actually see the kilometers long queue in the first two pictures ... that is for getting in :-( )

Cheers!

Very nice. I like the reflection, but wondered if that was a line to get in.

Thanks. Sorry for not being descriptive enough; If you see carefully, right in front of the Taj Mahal, on the elevated area is a queue of people across the horizon - that is a part of the line to get in!

These are incredible....if you are worried about the people, I would clone them out. Either way, I think this is an awesome photo.

Thanks Angella.
I need to learn many Post processing techniques (including something like cloning people out of the pictures), but honestly, in this case, I'll keep the picture the way it is. I think it adds value to the pic. What do you think?
