I love this angle on the pillars and captured the corner minaret very well. Also loved your title for this… so true!

Lovely perspective shot. Sandstone red is such a graceful colour isn’t it? By focusing on this particular section of the building, you’ve also managed to highlight the subtle blend in Hindu and Islamic architectural styles. Good job.

Thanks guys.

[…] the subtle blend in Hindu and Islamic architectural styles.

That’s it! I was starting at the Darwaza-i Rauza wondering what was so peculiar about the building. Now I realize this fusion was what stood out.

Even though I might have nothing to say here, I like to come back and see shots like these. Again and again. Love this shot.
