Photo: Ceremonial Doorway inside Jaipur

Photo: Ceremonial Doorway inside Jaipur
The old market of Jaipur is one of the tourist destinations inside Jaipur, and right inside the old market, you have both the Hawa Mahal and the Jaipur City Palace. The place is full of historical architecture, as can be seen from this ceremonial doorway, crafted in a mix of Mughal and Rajasthani cultures.

Why is it that, even when you see so many photos of pigeons or other birds, you cannot resist taking such photos of your own ? So, when I stepped out of the Jaipur City Palace, just outside the gate I saw this tree and electric pole with so many birds either flying over, or perched on top, I was tempted to take photos, and you can see one of them.

Photo: A series of doors inside the Jaipur City Palace
This photo is that of a regular tourist path inside the Jaipur City Palace. These are the series of doorways through which people enter or exit the Jaipur City Palace, and you can see atleast 3 such doorways through which people, in this case, seem to be primarily coming out of the compound. This photo would have presented a chance to show the concept of multiple doorways in the distance in one photo, but with so many people, your attraction is taken towards the people rather than the structure.

Getting this shot took me a large amount of time. I was waiting for a time when there would be nobody in this photo (a lot of photos that I had taken had people / tourists in the photo), and given that this was tourist season, had to wait for quite some time.
The photo is not remarkable other than it shows a section of the Jaipur City Palace which is not as well maintained as the other parts are.

A photo of a couple under an arched doorway at the Jaipur City Palace. This doorway is more like a small pathway through a structure on top, and what was interesting for me was the obvious love between the two, as well as the way that light and shadow was interacting through the length of the pathway.

As you enter the outside gate of the Jaipur City Palace, and head towards the inner gates of the complex, you come across these line of cannons, all lined up and pointing outwards. Some of them are pointing upwards, while others are pointing downwards, and obviously they are not in use anymore. However, they look good as you get closer to them.
