Chota Imambara, Lucknow

Posted on June 28, 2009
Chota Imambara, Lucknow

I am not feeling too lazy today, so here is another picture. I had been to Lucknow to attend a conference at Lucknow. A day trip of Lucknow was included in the conference schedule and I am so thankful for it. I have been going to Lucknow since childhood but never ventured out in the city.

To click this picture with the reflection I hopped over to the wooden bridge on the water even though it was chained. Chances of being yelled at by a caretaker is quite high but I still risked it. For me it is a little difficult to resist a good picture opportunity. And thankfully no one yelled at me for climbing the bridge and taking this picture.

    Thank you Celine.Namita, I took the risk 😀 There were a father and son on the bridge too and that gave me courage.

    I have visited Lucknow sometime back and took the same picture as you have narrated yours. I go to lot of places and take photographs. Of course, photography is my hobby and not my profession!
