I do hope you like this image. It was taken inside the Itimad-ud-Daulah's tomb (the Lord treasurer), also known locally as the Baby Taj. It was built in 1622 over 6 years by his daughter Nur Jahan, The Mughal emperor Janangir's favourite wife. This was actually quite a difficult shot becasue the room was almost pitch black. so I just aimed and took the picture. It was only when I edited it adding contrast that the true beauty of the room was revealed. It is located on the east side of the Yamuna river. The Taj Mahal is on the west side alittle further up stream.
