Agra Hall

Photograph by Marco Parenti , National Geographic Your Shot

It was a rainy day when I visited the Taj Mahal last year, says Your Shot contributor Marco Parenti . During my walk to the monument, I noticed this long arcade with a cart at the end. The perspective offered by the sequence of the pillars precisely zooming right onto the cart s wheel was amazing. The ochre tone was highlighted by the grayish light of the day. [It was] just perfect everything seemed to be there just waiting for my shot!
