The Taj Mahal

Anthony your photos of india now makes it even cooler to be an indian :D

Excellent picture….... I love this kind of shots….. Can you share the details about the shot particularly I am interested in the lens…

Hi Jay
Glad you like the photo.
The lens used was a Canon EF16-35 f/2.8L USM – with a polarising AND graduated neutral density filter. The camera I use is Canon EOS 1D Mark II N. This was taken hand-held as tripods are not permitted in the Taj Mahal.

Thank you Anthony for sharing the information and I envy you for being a owner of such wonderful camera and lens…. Keep up the good work…...

Great shot!!!!

great call on the Black and White, adds an original flavor to a very photographed place

Truly impressive, great exposure, I hope to visit here one day

Amazing. It is so beautiful and vibrant, even in black and white, its like there is a a white light above The Taj Mahal, and grey, dark clouds are spreading apart, carrying everything negative away, and leaving The Taj Mahal in a white, positive, extravagant, peaceful, and beautiful glow.

wow, i love the contrast and the slight warp in perspective.

did you use a wide angle lens?

great to see a different view – well done

great shot :) looks almost infrared…

WOW never seen this kind of shot of TAj Mahal…...Amazing…...:) :)

Great sky over the majestetic building.
