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 of from Sunaabh Sarkar, shot at Naukuchiatal in Uttaranchal. "The horses had polythene sheets over them for protection against the rains," he says. "And they stood in a formation facing head to tail."

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 on rediff.com and in India Abroad. And make sure to include a little-write up of where you clicked the snap.

"My friends and I visited a hillstation called Chikhaldara in Vidarbha this season," says Manish Khandelwal. "The morning when this snapshot was taken was heavy with rain and we enjoyed every bit of it -- we had nothing but a towel to take cover with and my friends were fighting to shelter themselves!"
