A wonderful TR with many awesome photos - THE shot of the Taj was outstanding but the ones of the dogs, bee and other creatures were the favorites. Thanks so much for posting

Truly a wonderful trip report, I am glad that you enjoyed your trip. My wife and I have been to most of the places you have, but alas, even though my handle here is fotographer, it seems that is the last thing I want to do when we travel. I am glad you did take pictures, dont know how you still have time to enjoy the visit, let me know how you do it,
We are doing the same trip in two weeks. Could you just email me this trip report. It has so much good information in it, but it is difficult to digest in this forum.
I am at [email protected]
I hope I am not breaking any rules here !! Thanks,

Thanks DanielW. The Pakistan side was a bit more tame than India. They had one kid (teenager) doing some kind of dance for most of the "pre-show". They didn't have the flag running and the crowd didn't appear to be as patriotic as India's side. The guards appeared equally energetic during the ceremony though.
. Standing room only in the stadium too. I had tried to go the day before and arrived at 2:30pm but they were already turning people away!

A spectacle it sure was! I'm looking forward to your take on it as from the Indian side (where I was sitting), it was very hard to see anything going on over on the Pakistani side (I assume you were on that side, not India's?), not to mention I couldn't hear anything from over there.

Perhaps it's just a permissions issue you could fix on SmugMug?

Excellent, I’ll look at the other link.
Your photos are truly exceptional. I traveled to Chernobyl myself this past summer and wrote about it for The Boston Globe, but I fear your photos put mine to shame.
Just realized that since this is an India thread, I should also link to my India album. At some point I’ll make it into a TR of my own!
