This is my entry in @theexplorer's “Travelling Moments” photo challenge.
The minute we arrived at this Wonder of the World, we started snapping photos, just like everyone else. We walked around the Taj, through the Taj, and across the grounds, snapping photos from various points of view and various angles.
Jump into the clouds
After we’d seen it all and taken too many photos, we returned to the front, near the long reflecting pool. We sat down on some clean, cool marble slabs, and relaxed. After a few moments, my friend told me to stand up, and then jump.
She thought it might make an interesting photo. I was not so sure it would. But, on her first snapshot, she got this decent photo – with both me and the Taj framed in the billowing clouds.
All in all, not a bad "Travelling Moment" – frozen in time and frozen in space.
Great shot, you really captured the moment. It's great to see something different rather than the typical portrait pose! Thanks for your support and entry as usual!

Glad you like it. I'm not very photogenic, so any "typical portrait pose" of myself would not get very many upvotes on Steemit. ☺
Thanks for your diligent work on this contest. And I understand about how tough it might be to get the ball rolling much bigger and faster. Keep up the work, and eventually, the rewards will come.
(As for any prizes, that's not even a concern of mine. I'm grateful that your contest (and @juliank's) give me the opportunity / channel to post my photos. It's a very effective way of attracting more followers, and that is my secondary goal on this platform. The first is to create quality content that will be on the blockchain forever, and which people will find interesting and useful.)

In the heat of India, there are not many places you go without a bottle of cool water. Including 2 feet in the air!!

So are you trying to tell me that the man in the picture jumping is not you?? Or you are just trying to hide in those words you asked if I notice?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Yes, that's truly me.
I was just wondering if I look like the fat, middle-age man that I actually am, or if jumping makes me look strong and youthful.

This picture, to say the least, has made my day. You ask me why? I will tell you. It is refreshing to unravel the chaos of how @majes.tytyty looks like. That way, my day is made. May I have your discord channel?

Yes, it's always interesting when the hermits on Steemit finally reveal their faces.
As for discord, I've never used it. I've tried, but found it very confusing. However, I've been contacted on Steemit chat, and I chat with others on that channel sometimes. (But I'm not a big fan of chatting.)

Hahaha your bluntness regarding discord is marvelling. I find it confusing as well. I will look you up on Steemit chat and see what happens when you are in the chatting mood.

Nice jump shot. Got me thinking to take a trip out there. Did they tell you the story of the building? Heard it was like a tomb for a kings wife or something like that?

Yep, the emperor's wife died when she was still in her middle age, and he loved her / missed her so much that he built this amazing mausoleum to her memory!!
