Next we have this one from Tania Mukherjee, a a PhD student at the University of Houston, Texas.

Pranav Kumar of Noida e-mailed in this snapshot, stating, "I pursue photography as a hobby and love to click nature pics. This was clicked by me on my trip to Mussoorie -- while checking out from the hotel last month, my eyes caught a glimpse of this intriguing flower, upside down and wet with tiny droplets from the recent shower."
