Taj in the Morning


As the morning light changed, the white marble Taj Mahal went from blueish lavender to golden. Fog hung over the wetlands behind it and the building looked weightless and ghostly, blending into the atmosphere. It is incredibly beautiful and exquisite and unlike any architecture I've ever seen. Rubies, emeralds and solid gold are encrusted in the marble in delicate, floral design.

Tourists were getting annoyed when this man warped the mirror-like reflection of the Taj and their perfect postcard photos.

Parrots everywhere

Wetlands and a few structures behind the Taj
