 Chamaeleon Effect Of The Taj

 “The night is more alive and more richly colored than the day” Vincent van Gogh  A night is as good as the morning in its own way, where the morning speaks in a shiny, bright color with the sound of birds and the beauty of fresh wind and glowy sun. However, the night has a dim moony light and a sweet silence with a little sound of crickets. Similarly, not only the night but different Phases of the Day have different characteristics and these characteristics make the Taj beauty different and more gloomy. For instance, in the morning you may observe a flaxen and bright color; during sunset, there is a golden glow, and during a full moon, it becomes silverly hushed in color.
