Silhouette upon the sands
Next we have this photograph from Anand Kumar, who explains, "This picture was taken at dusk in Jaisalmer, with my wife standing on top of a sand dune. The fading light from the sunset and the glowing of the crescent moon high up in the sky completed the setting."
Ruins against the summer sky
Vikas D Parushetti contributed this pic stating, "This was taken when I was visiting Bijapur in Karnataka for a friend's engagement. In my free time, I visited the beautiful ruins of Bara Kaman (the unfinished mausoleum of Ali Adil Shah II)."
A pretty sight
"This image was captured one afternoon at Gamla Stan Island in Stockholm, Sweden," says Prasant K Senapati.
The dividing line
And finally, we have this one from Sowmya Badam of Bangalore, taken at Chidiya Tapu in the Andamans.
