2022-05-17 TOURISTS IN NEW DELHI
The Indian tourists and visitors were mostly dressed in colorful clothes. The colorful clothes look good among the old sights and buildings.

2022-03-23 PARK IN AGRA
If you are in India I can recommend visiting Agra. This park alone brings you half a day of strolling around and taking a ton of photos. But it doesn’t stop here, there is also a Red Fort and the Taj Mahal.

2019-09-04 INDIAN GIRL IN AGRA
Agra is well known for the Taj Mahal. One other attractive sight is the Red Fort. A large building with walls built from red stone. Inside there is a vast garden area where I could shoot a picture from that nice little Indian girl. She was dressed in a beautiful dress and running around on the lawn — a more attractive photo then the red walls.

2019-07-22 ELEPHANTS AT THE ENTRY OF BIRLA MANDIR
A very friendly taxi-driver brought me to Birla Mandir temple. I trusted my driver to bring me to the sightseeing hot-spots of New Dheli. At the entrance, we had to remove our shoes. We followed the rules and rules we were given when entering. It was a fascinating temple for a visitor from the Western world.

2019-03-17 RED FORT IN INDIA
I have seen two Red Forts in India, one in Delhi, the other in Agra. Though I don’t know, which fort is on the Photo, each of them is worth a visit. Colossal buildings with big walls all built from red stone. Also a big attraction for the Indians, in Agra there were thousands of Indian tourists in line for entering. Inside there are vast parks and many impressive buildings in Indian style.

2019-02-15 QUTB MINAR
The tower from 1192. A one-of-a-kind building, built from thousands of individual bricks and stones. I would have liked to step up the 73 meters, but entry was not allowed. Each of its blocks has unique ornaments, the whole complex houses similar buildings, built from the same materials, but not this height. On the entry, there have been straying dogs, which were resting in brown puddles of water.

2018-08-19 HOTELS IN NEW DELHI
Standing on the swimming pool-terrace of the Le Meridien Hotel in New Delhi I got this view of nearby hotel towers. It made the impression as if the towers would grow out of the greenery. The sky tinted in the light-smog of that big city. A bit surreal kind of photo showing hotels in India.

2018-03-22 GANDHI MEMORIAL NEW DELHI
A big park area surrounds the Gandhi Memorial. Before entering you have to put off your shoes and then you are allowed to enter the signed ways to the memorial. It is one of the unforgettable experiences in life when you feel the aura of such great persons and leaders.

The photo shows “Tomb of I’timād-ud-Daulah” in Agra, which is often regarded as the little, draft Taj Mahal. I think in the western hemisphere it’s a bit complicated to spell it correctly. 🙂 It’s located in a prominent park area, with gardens and surrounding buildings built from red sandstone. You can get a combo ticket which adds the Red Fort and Taj Mahal. It’s worth to take it and visit all three!

I looked from a different angle when shooting one of the most photographed monuments on earth. I had the sun on the higher frame, the Taj Mahal in the middle and some Indian people on the right standing that tiled floor. With the wide angle lens, this gives a new composition which I like. If you are on that site where I did the photo you have already walking socks on your feet because entry to the Taj Mahal is only allowed without shoes to protect the monument. The correct strategy to keep that building protected for the generations to come.
