I hadn't seen a lot of shots showing the detail of the Taj Mahal so I set out to capture a few of my own when I was there. This is one of the few that I really liked.

If you run your hand over the inlay work, it is as smooth are polished marble. Those artisans really knew their craft.

I don't think I've EVER seen a Taj Mahal detail photo -- it's just so spectacular from afar. Thanks!

They don't do such marvelous things today :-( Where did the craftmen dissapear?

Wow--this is incredible! Such beautiful detail, and I love how you framed it, emphasizing those wonderful angles...
