Taj & Camel

© Capt Suresh Sharma. All Rights Reserved.

It was a chance that I caught this camel in this position, as the driver was pulling him off the seen, for I did not agree for his high rates for a photo session. Some, do a photo session, especially riding camel in front of the Taj.

That's very unusual. Nicely decorated camel, too.

lakshmi.prabhala says:

A chance but you were ready for it. I like how the Taj is totally in focus in teh BG and the camel is little unsharp. The red on the camel adds a lovely dash of colour to the picture.
