In a world of easy travel it’s not surprising that some highly photogenic locations feature heavily in the media, travel itineraries, on photo workshop itineraries and photo competitions. This visibility in turn attracts more photographers to get ‘the shot’ – often the same shot or the picture postcard version. In this series we investigate how to retrain our eyes and minds into thinking differently in over-photographed places. In this instalment we visit the Taj Mahal in India.
Where is the Taj Mahal?
India – in the city of Agra in the state of Uttar Pradesh. It’s only about two hours by train from the capital Delhi and easily accessible to visitors from around the world – a highlight on the Golden Triangle tourist itinerary.
