Here we juxtapose artifacts that span about eight centuries.

During my visit to Delhi in February 2012 I had a chance to revisit some of the major tourist sites in the city and also to pop in on a few that I had overlooked previously. Many places I visited had been photographed extensively from the time that photographic film was invented through the time photographic film was largely supplanted by digital methods.

I chose to do a lot of my photography capturing once in a lifetime shots of people capturing once in a lifetime shots of themselves in front of the centuries old structures. My self-given photo assignment was a lot of fun.

I think this is the classic photo, “Here I am with my hand atop India’s tallest minaret.”
