Deeply engrossed with the beauty of Tajmohal. Nikon D5 70mm

The Taj Mahal was built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahān to immortalize his wife Mumtaz Mahal who died in childbirth having been the emperor’s inseparable companion since their marriage. It is situated in the eastern part of the city on the southern bank of the Yamuna River. One of the most beautiful structural compositions in the world, the Taj Mahal is also one of the world’s most iconic monuments, visited by millions of tourists each year. During my visit I saw this lonely Lady was deeply engross with beauty and sad history of the Tajmohal for a long time and I took this photo from behind which show people feeling about amazing beauty to captivate them after long period of time. This photo show people engrossed and enchanted which was best shown from the back of portrait.
