Relaxing in the Mangroves
The Sundarbans might be known for its tigers, but there is one more species which is as dangerous and powerful – the crocodiles. This one seems to be relaxing out in the sun, out of the water where it generally thrives.Note the roots of the trees coming out of the soil on the mud. This is a feature of the mangroves of this region, where the roots are forced to come out to get oxygen, the soil is too salty to contain any oxygen or nitrogen. |

Prayer for Peace
The south entrance of the grand old Jama Masjid of Old Delhi, the largest and most famous mosque of India wears a rather dreary look on an afternoon as the spring sets in this part of the world.May the prayers of all those people who visit this place be directed towards promoting peace and harmony among fellow human beings, and may all those prayers reach the Almighty and may peace prevail everywhere in the world; a world which has been living under the scare of terrorism for quite sometime now. |
