Krishanu Kaushik sends this photo.
"I took the photograph on a dew covered morning of December '09 at Kaziranga National Park. With the trees and hills (Burha Pahar meaning Old Hill) in the background, it was a spectacularly magic moment! Grazing together in that swamp were more than ten times the number of deer you see in this picture. It was not possible to capture all of them in one photo.
"Also, the thick dew coupled with my simple point-and-shoot camera made it very hard to get a good photograph. But I think the photo captures the moment well."

I have always been fascinated by railway stations," shares Sharad Dhumane.
"This is a small station on the Konkan Railway route and it truly reflects the place. Konkanis are economical (no wastage), very functional and aesthetic. The landscape is beautiful. All this can be seen in the station, with minimal station structure, everything nicely placed, very clean. There are mountains in the distance and one has to climb to get to the station."
