Taj People
After my return from a month in North India a week ago I have spent that time getting over jet lag and also have started editing the nearly 3000 images that I took on my travels.
After arriving in Delhi on my first visit there I headed for Agra. Although I’ve travelled in the north before, I have always tried to avoid the Golden Triangle and the tourist hotspots, preferring instead to stay at the less well known destinations. This time I grasped the bull by the horns and went for the big ones!
So here we are at that ikon of Indian destinations, Agra and the Taj Mahal.
I have a whole series of fragmentary views of that famous building. The reason for visiting India is, after all, to meet the inhabitants, and so my first priority was to photograph people! Perhaps I’m being a bit of a tease here, but you will only get glimpses of that famous building over the next few posts as I concentrate on portraiture!
Well……….. you know what the Taj Mahal looks like, don’t you?
I love what you’ve done! Especially the two folks in green in the corner. Can’t wait for more!
Hi David, it’s great to hear from you, and thanks very much for the comment.
Haha. I had a feeling you’d be the one to offer a different perspective. 🙂
Well bless me, that’s a most lovely comment, thank you Amy.
Brilliant! I’ve been away from wordpress for a while due to big family commitments! Very much looking forward to following your posts on this John! Glad you’re back safe and sound.
Hope that all is well with you Peter.
Always enjoy your lovely photos….more please!
