Face of the Taj Mahal

The goal of this photo is to show you the intricate details of the Taj Mahal, but at the same time give you a sense of scale to realize the incredible size of the Taj Mahal. Bonus points for those who spot the 2 people perched on high.

As with my previous post, this image is from a single RAW photo processed as an HDR from 3 images outputted 1.5 stops apart.

You can buy this photo here, with many options including standard prints, canvas gallery wraps, gift cards, mugs, T-shirts and much more.

You may also be interested in my previous Flowing Color on Marble photo or my traditional Taj Mahal photo taken from farther away.

  • The Taj is amazing! The barely discernable black script around the main arch is actually Arabic, and all of those patterns are stones set inside of the white marble so perfectly that you can run your fingers over it and not feel any difference. Perfectly smooth!



    Love the Taj. =)

  • The little people infront of this great building really gives this image a great perspective.
