Jammin' in the rain!


Prasun Sanyal sent in this next one, saying, "This photograph was taken when I was returning home from my office. This is the scene at Dhaula Kuan (New Delhi). Due to the heavy rain, the water flooded the road (the underpass of the bridge) and a massive traffic jam hit the route. Very little space was left for vehicles to cross."

Slow and steady


We received this picture of a snail going about his business in typical slow fashion from Sadashiv Borawake.

Flourishing flowers


This photograph was taken in Nainital a few weeks ago after a monsoon shower," says Aniruddh Sarkar. "I found these flowers right in our hotel's small garden, with water dripping off them."

A hot cuppa


And here's another one from Aniruddh, taken from his hotel room, which looks onto Naini Lake. Now isn't that look nice and cozy?
