    Cool!
    There is a lot more to see in India than Taj Mahal. Try to go Rajasthan if you have time.

  • zura February 20, 2009 @ 1:50 am

    wow, amazing photos and journey! :D

  • Sarsura February 20, 2009 @ 2:12 am

    really great pictures, i guess it is a really nice trip

  • Tarum February 20, 2009 @ 2:31 am

    Nice Photo’s :D I would really like to go to the taj 1 time.

  • ryan February 20, 2009 @ 3:05 am

    was just there in Nov, and it’s funny the pictures people take at the Taj look so similar…An amazing experience as you know!

  • Nirav February 20, 2009 @ 3:17 am

    Great Photos Matt. The first photo in the fifteenth row is unique.. you’ve captured the Taj with the pillars as they look together.. You surely seem to have enjoyed it.

    Now, you need to visit the Akshardham temple that’s near the wordcamp venue. You would love it as well!

  • Mayank February 20, 2009 @ 4:25 am

    whoa…so many pics!
    I am sure you have enjoyed Taj.
    Enjoy your stay!

    Looking forward to Wordcamp India

    Its such a wonderful place you’ve visited.

    • Matt February 20, 2009 @ 7:06 am

      It is indeed my first time in India.

  • Suyash Ramineni February 20, 2009 @ 6:24 am

    Hey Matt… Take permission before capturing people in your camera :)

    I hope you enjoyed your visit (with Om Malik) to Agra. I was there for around 1 year. Then, I visited it almost every month sometimes twice in a month :)

    Nice pics… I love India(my country), and I love the way you have portrayed

  • yogesh goel February 20, 2009 @ 6:45 am

    The world puts off its mask of vastness to its lover.
    It is the tears of India,
    that keep her smiles in bloom.

  • Lutfar Rahman Nirjhar February 20, 2009 @ 8:43 am

    Nice photos!

    Next time don’t miss Bangladesh. You’re welcome to Dhaka and also bring Mr. Om. He knows me slightly!

    :)

  • Peter V Cook February 20, 2009 @ 6:57 pm

    Looks like you had nice blue skies. I was able to visit in November but it was extremely hazy. The photos didn’t quite turn out

  • Vikram February 20, 2009 @ 7:10 pm

    Wow, you were here in Agra, I live, like 2 hours away from Agra, actually in New Delhi.
    I had been to Agra just 2 weeks back with my friends and few days back for a Blogging Meet up by Mr Agarwal.
    Amit Agarwal of Digital Inspiration is from Agra as well. Did you get to meet him? He is a great guy too.
    I hope you liked Taj Mahal – its quite a sight to see! Nice to have you in India.

  • Pushkar Arora February 20, 2009 @ 10:46 pm

    Welcome to India.

    Hope you enjoy ur stay here.

  • aminhers February 21, 2009 @ 8:33 am

    I like your jump photo in front of Taj Mahal, it’s so cool.

  • Honey Singh February 21, 2009 @ 8:35 am

    Taj mahal is no doubt a must watch place in india.Camera auto starts when you enter in the taj mahal territory.

    Seems you are in the car so was able to click only road traffic of the Delhi-Agra highway.

    It was great to listen you at the first day pf Wordcamp India.
    I do remember how the guys are interesting in clicking photos with you, but appreciate about your long patience to make every one happy and felicitous by giving a sweet simple smile.

    Hope to catch you tomorrow.

  • gaurav February 21, 2009 @ 9:51 am

    it is really a very good collection of taj’s pics …
    it great …now i will have to plan a visit to taj mahal…

  • Federico Diaz Mastellone February 21, 2009 @ 11:12 am

    Excellent picts,Matt…

    I returned from India, one month ago. It`s better than photographies… Do you think it…? :) )

  • Varuni Khosla February 21, 2009 @ 11:55 am

    Hey matt.. great stuff!! what about the pics that you took at our house??

    • Matt February 21, 2009 @ 5:48 pm

      Catching up on those.

      • varuni khosla March 2, 2009 @ 2:51 pm

        :) still waiting :) :)

  • Spamboy February 21, 2009 @ 3:14 pm

    Congratulations for making it to see the Taj Mahal. I had the opportunity when I worked over there in April 2006, but I choose not to go: I was overseas alone, my wife was still stateside, and I didn’t want to visit a monument to love without her. :)

    • Mayank February 22, 2009 @ 8:30 am

      Thats your love for your life! great! thats almost as romantic as Shahjahan himself. Except that you havent still made a Taj Mahal for her!.
      BTW@ Matt loved you today at Wordcampindia. hope to see you again in future. (i am the guy with a cap who took lots of pictures with you and also asked you to click a pic from my SE P1i)
      Thanks for coming to India and making wordcamp a huge event :)

  • Rohit February 22, 2009 @ 1:28 am

  • Tarum February 22, 2009 @ 3:54 am

  • Kate Mag February 22, 2009 @ 9:26 pm

    Matt, this picture is the best :
    Om Malik with Om Symbol.
    Where did you take the picture?

    • Matt February 23, 2009 @ 12:28 am

      It was in the electric taxi on the way to the Taj Mahal.

  • Fawaz February 23, 2009 @ 1:01 am

    Great pictures, Matt!

    These snaps give you just an overview of what India is. You may have to spend much more time to capture the essence of India.

    But the Taj Mahal is just one of the many beautiful places to be visited and seen. Did you get the time to visit the Red Fort in Delhi?

  • eris February 24, 2009 @ 9:39 pm

    Welcome to India!
    On a different take. Had Shahjahan been so connected in those days, he would have built something like wordpress in the fond memory of his beloved and you would have built Taj Mahal portraying their efforts!
    Nice photographs.. want to see more!

  • Jhangora February 24, 2009 @ 9:47 pm

    Nice pics Matt. I spent a few months in Agra and though the Taj is beautiful my favourite historical monument in Agra was Sikandra. It’s the tomb of Akbar.

  • Zaman February 25, 2009 @ 4:56 am

    Hi Matt,

    Welcome to India and enjoy your stay in India. If you need any help just inform anyone from the Indian webmaster community and we will be always ready to help you :) . I can hardly think of building any new website without wordpress.. it has made me a stable webmaster since the past three years from a computer illiterate .. thanks once again and please ask for help if you need anytime in India

    The pics of Taj Mahal are awesome but I also advice you to visit Goa, Kerela, Delhi, Rajasthan and of course Slumdog Mumbai .. lol

  • jemitech February 25, 2009 @ 12:01 pm

    wow it’s very good

  • gufron February 25, 2009 @ 3:17 pm

    real amazing..
    i went to taj mahal, agra in 1975. Looking at pics no big difference… still the same.
    Taj Mahal it self is still ‘fantastic’

  • Karel Segers February 25, 2009 @ 3:29 pm

    Good to see you didn’t lose your shoes at the Taj Mahal! ;)

  • anas March 1, 2009 @ 8:13 am

    Great pic Matt, Taj Mahal, a monument of love between a beautiful queen and a great Mughal emperor.

  • Sid December 22, 2009 @ 9:06 am

    You should see Fatehpur Sikri… its about 30kms from Agra…

  • starla August 3, 2010 @ 7:48 am

    Seeing these pictures made me want to travel. Fun to see where the mandala header came from in the twenty ten theme. Great photos, that must have been a great trip.
