And finally, we have this pic from Subratakumar Rath, who says, "This is one of the beautiful sunsets near Puri. It is a river that is parallel to the sea -- the Bay of Bengal -- near a place called Ramchandi. We were standing on the sand dunes between the sea and the river. There were cows grazing on the little patch of land and the sunset was most wonderful. We enjoyed the sea and the river."
