We invited you to send in unique rain-themed photographs -- odd scenes that are captured on a lens for posterity -- to share with other readers. Here are some more responses!

First up is this one from Kalpesh Ajugia from Mumbai, who says, "Mumbaikars are always eagerly awaiting the rains. The first day of the season, when it really rained heavily, I was at home and got an opportunity to e is the monsoons, so your photograph has to gel with the season. Hurry and send in your entry today!

The long and winding road


We received this next image from Krunal Patil, who says, "It was taken at Hill Road on the way to Nandi Hills, a small hillstation near Bangalore. Almost inside the clouds, the wee hours saw a beautiful composition of morning colour. The lights of our car were on and that added the orange tint to the natural monsoon scene."

The awesome orchid


Sadashiv Borawake sent in this striking picture of a white orchid, which almost looks like a ghostly insect against the foliage.

Shaft of light


Now isn't this one amazing photograph? Zeeshan Mohammad sent it in, saying, "The sunset between the monsoon clouds created a spectacular scene. It was shot from the terrace of my building in Bangalore."

Getting crabby


And finally, we have this from Pavitra Bhushan, of a rather large crab he spotted on her way to Rajmachi.
