Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

This particular shot taught me a lesson about photography, and tangentially, a lesson about life: there is always another perspective; there is always another angle. Everyone--and I mean everyone--takes shots of the Taj Mahal to include the gorgeous fountain that leads up to its marbled footsteps, and for good reason--it's a beautiful view. But step away from the crowd, look elsewhere, and you may be surprised just how beautiful another view can be, simply because it hasn't been viewed before. It was a fine lesson to learn.
