Taj Mahal: As Seen from Agra FortUpdate: You can imagine the quality of posts Anil writes when this is just a comment on this post:
If I got it correct, then I wonder what must those last days have been like . . . to be able to look, and not be able to ‘touch’ – to wither away remembering.In the end as grandeur flowers, it can only bury the creator once it falls.

Sidhu, I too kept thinking about the place and how it must have been minus the traffic!
That’s how Shahjahan saw it in his last days (minus the road and traffic, of course!), when he was imprisoned in Agra fort, by his own son.
Akira, thank you.Abhinav, Anil is brilliant. You should read his blog!
In the end as grandeur flowers, it can only bury the creator once it falls.Simply brilliant!
Mridula, good one!
Sathish, lovely pictures indeed.Kalyan, thank you.Anil, whatever the tangle, I am sure I can never write like that! This one was taken by my old Nikon Coolpix 3200, the point and shoot one but I do have a Canon Rebel XT but I am not yet too good at it. For example I have not tried RAW and I have not tried fully manual mode, sheesh. Actually the camera has been in repair longer than in my hands but now that it is working, maybe I will get better. By any chance do you write SLR tips too
If yes, point me the links.
Thanks, Mridula. It’s just that I love history and the tangle that goes with it
What camera have you been using?

Madhukar, I tried a lot to keep the cars out of the view but was not possibl! I am sure in that aspcet it was certainly different! And thanks a lot for the comment.
A “Badshah’s” view.Wonder, if the landscape was same 350 years ago.Mk
