Unusual monsoon pics: Making a splash!
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 click some photographs and then sit and enjoy some hot tea and bhajiyas. Instead of capturing some regular pics, I decided to closely capture a spot where the water was splashing off our roof. Turned out to be better than what I expected in the low light."
Share your interesting monsoon snapshots with us! They could be from anywhere across India or the world, but they have to be original.
Simply e-mail your photographs to getahead@rediff.co.in (subject line: 'Unusual monsoon pics') -- we'll publish the most interesting ones right here. And make sure to include a little-write up of where you clicked the snap.
Remember, the theme 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.
