“17th century architecture,but still not lost its charm.”
“Let’s blow it up!”
“Why only the Tajmahal?”
“Befitting.It’s a mausoleum after all!”
“Ha!Set the timer for dusk.”
“Decided how much to charge the client for the prints?”

@Zebra Crossing 
Good one, and fitting too! It seems to sum up the way of the world lately. Very clever use of this week’s 36 words!
Ah yes,true though I did not quite mean it that way!But alas,seems there was some gap in the telling-I meant “blowing up” as in enlarging a photograph cos these two are photographers:P Thank you for stopping by to read & comment Valerie:-)
Oh, my friend-after reading this again, I did get what you meant! Don’t feel bad-you said it very well. I just hadn’t had enough coffee yet;) I think something as magnificent as the Tajmahal at dusk needs to be blown up as large as possible!
Aww Valerie,thank you my friend,you are so kind,am already feeling better:-)
Very cleverly written and th threatret clearly spelt out. Excellent.
Thanks YS but lagta hai kuch log shayad samajh nahi paye ki ye criminals ya terrorists nahi balki photographers hain-likhne me kami reh gayi lagta hai 😦
Very nice. I love how you used the words.
Thank you Deana:-)
hahaha this is crazy 😀
:-)Glad you got it Draug-was afraid that I may have missed making a point & it does seem many people got the wrong picture(no pun there :P)
What a strange decision, to blow up the Taj Mahal! I do hope they’ll get paid well for this.
Thanks for linking up!
Ah,am terribly crestfallen for having failed in making my story clearer-they are photographers wanting to enlarge a photograph of Tajmahal-not criminals,boo hoo!
And another one bites the dust! So much beautiful architecture has been lost this way.
Intriguing take on the prompt.
Renee thank you but they are not criminals-just photographers who wanted to “blow up” the picture of Taj for their client-so sorry for not being able to convey it:-(
Unnerved me a bit till I saw your twist of an ending. Well done!
Maggie,cannot begin to tell you how gratifying it is to see when at least a few understand where you are coming from-thank you so much:-)Most people who came by thought that these two are criminals & not photographers unless I misunderstood their take,lol!Off to read your’s & other posts:-) xoxo
Opportunistic criminals! Love your creative take on the prompt!
Thank you for reading Suzanne but these two are no criminals!Poor things are just professional photographers trying to get some good enlarged pics of the Taj for their client-am feeling terrible at not haing been able to make my stand clear:-(
I was wondering if photographers or bombersss myself LOL! Great Job!
😛 Thank you Tessa-glad you stopped by 🙂
It’s crazy time! This was so different and so dark which means so fun!
:-)Thank you Gina for seeing where I was coming from;-)
LoL!! I love it! It’s super original and you used all the words differently than anyone else I’ve read. Bravo! P.S. where can I get my print!! Haha!
Lol!Thks friend & psst,your print is being developed;-)
Well, duh! Beautiful architecture just begs to be blown up by awesome photographers! I love, love, LOVE your spin on words! ❤
Aww,thanks Dana,so glad you came by:-)
When I first read it, I didn’t think like enlarging a picture. (Isn’t it sad that the state of the world makes us think of bombs rather than photos?) I read it again with photography in mind and I liked it much better – a more innocent conversation, I’d say!
Ha!ha!I have to admit that reading your comment has made me look at my creation in a better & kinder light Janna-I was feeling sad at not having got my point across properly:-)
It really gets you wondering their intents until the last sentence 🙂
Ha!ha!Thank you Lena for seeing that:-)
Oh, why you had to choose TajMahal?
?Am not sure I understand Shreya?
oh nothing …. it’s just you chose TajMahal to demolish … one of my fav’s 🙂
Lovely writing though !
Ah,I though t you misunderstood,so my question late last night(or should i say almost dawn,lol).These two were not out to demolish the Tajmahal Shreya,they were just two photographers,setting their equipment to take a beautiful pic which they wanted to “blow up”ie enlarge:-)Thks for reading
ohh I think I got it wrong … oops 😦
Lol,not to worry,it rang the wrong bell with many-my failure as a writer as I was not able to convey it correctly-sigh!
Great use of the three words. The lengths people will go to for money, and photography.
True-thk u for stopping by-off to read your’s now:-)
I admit I did a double take, Atreyee, but in a good way. Nice to have a small fright and then be able to laugh!
So glad you got what I wanted to say-I was almost despairing about my lack of writing skills Kymm!Thank you so much 😀
I also took it as otherwise initially – Symbols of art becoming the symbols of hate. But nicely done for the other theme too 🙂
Yes,the anti-social & fundamentalist groups do target such heritage sites-to be honest I had thought of doing it that way too but at the last moment decided to twist it cos as you may have realized I love twists,lol!Thank you so much for coming by to read & leave a comment MM:-)
