Manjit from Delhi sent in this funny image, taken at the Fort of Diu.

Regular contributor Prasun Sanyal sent in this image, explaining, "I have taken it in my village. I found ants crawling on the ground where it was a little wet -- the decaying leaves and wood makes this a perfect habitat for these ants. I had to be careful of them as they were crawling all over."

This next one is from Sanjay Srivastava, shot from an aircraft en route to Chennai from Delhi. "The river below looks like a silver lining," he muses.
