Delicious 'ras' of date-palm tree - a joyful item of winter in rural Bengal. Here in this picture, a squirrel tasting it happily. I loved this picture published on newspaper. -- A. B.

Today I was going to a village of rural Bengal to keep the invitation. At noon, clouds covered the sun and witnessed a fair spell of thundershower. After lunch, while I was returning home, watched a little girl was going in front of me with a school bag on her back. It was a calm afternoon after a spell of rains. And the doors of the rural houses and shops were shut. I felt the loneliness of the girl and the aloof surrounds. -- A. B.
