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

    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!

    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!

    I am sure you have enjoyed Taj.
    Enjoy your stay!

    Looking forward to Wordcamp India

    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

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

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

    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 20th, 2009 @ 7:10 pm | Reply

    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.

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

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

    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.

    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 22nd, 2009 @ 8:30 am | Reply

      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 :)

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

    • Matt | February 23rd, 2009 @ 12:28 am | Reply

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

  • Fawaz | February 23rd, 2009 @ 1:01 am | Reply

    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 24th, 2009 @ 9:39 pm | Reply

    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 24th, 2009 @ 9:47 pm | Reply

    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.

    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

    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’
