Monsoon Madness
 
While we pondered over the dwindling downpour this monsoon, it was raining entries from the very day that Monsoon Madness was announced. And so we pondered some more when it came to shortlisting these brilliant rain-drenched pictures which flooded us! And then, the rain went away. So we extended the contest. And another downpour! As we emerge drenched from the massive number of entries, our judge had a tough time choosing the winners. But he did. And congratulations to all those who won. For the rest, there’s always next time!

Arko DattaAbout the Judge: Photojournalist for Reuters, Arko Datta, believes photojournalism is only made for those who are madly in love with it. He has won numerous accolades including the top World Press Photo Honors in 2004. Arko says, “Photojournalism is a potent medium to express your creativity and to expose the unrestrained truth.”



Shooter will be back. With yet another uncommon photochallenge.

Monsoon Day 1 | Kolkata

Avijit Roy, Kolkata - Monsoon Day 1.
With many deserving pictures, it was a difficult choice to pick one single winning winner. However for me this picture comes closest to the theme “Monsoon madness”. The picture shot from a child’s point of view of monsoon, bring a smile on our face. The emotion conveyed in the picture and the way it has been shot makes it a very striking and eye catching picture

THE PRIZE: Avijit Roy wins the Epson PictureMate PM215.
