This was just such a magical day. I made photos with Tracee Stanley in front of the Taj Mahal, but the back of the building is where the local people go. Even from this angle, we were enchanted by this extraordinary structure. The Taj Mahal is one of those creations where human beings seem to reach toward excellence to touch the Divine. In my photographs, I look for a way to have the human being share space with these bigger-than-life structures so that neither is shadowing the other.

The Prison Yoga Project asked me to do some work at a federal prison in Mexico. In my downtime, I met Marcos Jassan, a yoga teacher with a love for architecture. We wandered around, looking at the buildings and cathedrals in Mexico City. Marcos is a devoted practitioner; he can pose anywhere. It was an incredibly inspiring day.
