Agra Sunrise by Clive S

Agra Sunrise by

I got to this same favorite spot of mine across the Yamuna river long before dawn to catch the changing hues on the Taj.

It was very misty and smoggy and, sadly, the river in February 2011, was almost non-existent.

We were rewarded with a spectacular light on the Taj.
