The Taj Mahal

I have always had a thing for famous landmarks. Whilst not in my ‘top 3’, the Taj Mahal has always mesmerised me.

For the evening shoot we decided to enter through the ‘back entrance’ which allows you access through The Mehtab Bagh, a square-shaped garden that is the last of eleven Mughal-built gardens along the Yamuna River, opposite to the Taj Mahal.  The Mehtab Bagh is often considered one of the ideal places to view the Taj Mahal, being perfectly aligned on the opposite bank.

We arrived in the late afternoon, just in time to watch the golden sun bathe the western side of the Taj with a beautiful golden hue. Whilst most tourists made a race towards the banks of the river to get an unobstructed view, I decided to hang back and scower the Bagh grounds. I was pleased with the results I got!

Arugably I found this vantage of the Taj the more impressive and satisfying than the conventional view.

India- Pushkar Camel Fair

I’ve just landed in Delhi, where I will be joining an American-led photo tour. The main attraction of the tour is the Pushkar Camel Fair, which is Asia’s largest camel and livestock market. Apart from the fair, we will travelling to Agra (for the Taj Mahal) as well as a number of other cities in the state of Rajasthan.

To say I'm excited is an understatement! Stay tuned on this page and my Instagram for photos through the next two weeks.

London again!

So here I am again...

London for the 3rd time in 12 months; It starts to feel familiar after so many times!

Here for my cousins wedding which will be happening over the next week. I'll try and get some photos to see how Indian weddings work out on the Fuji. 

Meanwhile here are some snippets from my flight over with Singapore Airlines. 

Whilst there is a direct flight with Qantas, I cannot speak more highly of the Singapore service and general experience. I decided a few months ago to consolidate all my flights with one alliance/airline for bonus reasons, and the Virgin Australia/Singapore Airlines alliance is perfect for me.

I hope to catch the SQ A350-900ULR to Newark in 2019. This is currently the longest commercial flight in operation- an AVGeek's dream
