Taj Mahal early in the morning

Taj Mahal is beautiful anytime of the day, but there is something really special early in the morning, especially if it's winters. Winters in north India are usually foggy and this actually adds to the beauty of Taj, making it emerge out of fog like a mystery to be solved.

Another great thing about morning is relatively less crowd on weekdays. So you can actually get shots which are relatively clean, and devoid of crowds. Of course, I love people and so people are always welcome in my shots, but sometimes it's nice to just capture the beauty as it is...



Sharing three of my favourite shots from Taj, each special to me for different reasons. Every time I look through them, they revive the sense of romance within me, even though Taj Mahal is actually a tomb. Morbid thoughts? Well...maybe...

Of course there is much more to Agra beyond Taj Mahal. Read this article to know more: Agra beyond the Taj!
