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. With the season at an end now, here is the final set of responses!

First up we have this one from Janmejoy Gupta, who explains, "This photo was taken near Prinsep Ghat, in front of the monument built in honour of King George V, near Prinsep Ghat Station by the Hooghly."

This one, also sent in by Janmejoy Gupta, "shows the Second Hooghly Bridge standing tall as the river flows quietly by, with rain-clouds filling the sky."
