Staging a silhouette takes patience and good background lighting. But sometimes a silhouette appears unexpectedly. Like when we toured the Taj at sundown, right before closing time.
We snapped a photo of the long lines waiting to snake around and up and around again on the plaza level, despairing as we noted the time remaining for our visit and how long it would take for a view from above. Then we made the inevitable decision based upon a statement we say frequently: Oh, well. Can’t do it all. And, camera in hand, we snapped away at those fortunate enough to view the setting sun from one of the world’s most famous structures. The result for us down below? A couple of unexpected silhouettes and great memories of an oh-too-short-but-fabulous-anyway visit.
