Next we have this photograph from Gaurav Talera of Mandsaur, of a helicopter in a cloudless sky.

Mathew Selvaraj contributed this pic, explaining, "It was a very hot day in the month of May when I found these two lazy crocodiles resting under the shadow of a tree, adjacent to the water at the Amaravathy Sagar Crocodile Farm, Tamil Nadu."

This one was mailed in by Ebrahim Khan, shot in Nainital -- apparently even gods need respite from the sun!

And finally, Malay Mitra of Bangkok, Thailand, sent in this one saying, " I took this picture in the Pranburi Province of Thailand during my visit there. The deserted look of the beach on a hot noon is so different."
