About I was in Agra for a conference, but took my chance bunked, and started for TAJ, it was raining and the idea of getting a good pic was getting dimmer by the seconds....... what I got is this... The immortal monument that is a symbol of luv made even more captivating by the cloud... Hope you guys like it

I do like it, the storm cloud surely presents a very dramatic mood, well done with a good perspective!! Did you tone map your RAW file with HDR software, sure looks like it. The tones are great!

Best wishes,
Dave

Perfect shot! Very dramatic sky. Love the bird and those people...wow...look like ants - great for scale! Did you really use the 70-200 lens though? Looks like wide-angle shot. Magnificent!!

Absolutely it is great. You got really rare light conditions and have made the best use for that. I am sure you have shot some more images, somewhat with the LIFE AROUND TAJ...??? Fine if not...you have captured it man...best.
Abhijit
