Next we have this one from Dr Prakash Lalpotu, who says, "The summer heat has begun everywhere. It's not just us human beings who need water -- animals need it too. These monkeys were naturally very happy to find this open water tank at Basmathnagar, in Maharashtra."

Darshan Naik of Mumbai contributed this next one of a woman walking on a sunny afternoon along Palolim Beach in Goa. Certainly looks like the heat was too much to bear!

"A dip in a cool blue pool of water is a delightful experience to everyone, especially children," says Biju Mohan. "Seen here is my son Rohan, enjoying himself. It almost looks like the water is clinging to him!"

And finally, we have this one of a pine forest in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, from N Venkatraman of Bangalore.
