Taj Mahal is the "symbol of eternal love"; located in Agra, India, that was built under Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Shot at 07:53 AM with temperature close to sub-zero! my fingers had gone numb. Lucky that I was equipped with my gloves...
Did this photoshoot with my friend Inder Gopal; you can check out his website here: http://www.indergopal.com
