David - I have mixed feelings about this image. The Taj is so absolutely beautiful in the background, and obviously you told a story of all the people looking at it and taking pictures of it. Great contrast with the foggy, dreamy background. The mixed feelings I have are about the guy taking the selfie - my eye was immediately drawn to him. He is in focus and bright like everyone else, but he's also the only one facing us, so we have to look at him. Is that what you want in this image? It does contribute to the story, but it also feels a bit distracting. What do you think?   Posted: 08/09/2026 17:49:17
