Monsoon magic, a photo from Maharashtra, West

Photographer's Note

It has been raining incessantly in Bombay since the last 2 weeks and has caused way too much trouble for the civic authorities than they had expected.

The only people who seem to be enjoying the never ending rain are the school kids who either get to go home early or get off school completely on other days. While on my way to work today I caught these kids enjoying their ride home in the rain as they went along. At red lights all the kids would jump out of the auto and get drenched...and run in as soon as the lights turned green. The auto driver had a hard time keeping all the kids inside :)

Very bad bluecast and blown highlights. Nice crop!

very lovely expression on the faces and I liked the colors though they look a little bluish on my screen too, but I don't think this is a problem at all..thanks..

Hi, great capture, nice timing, I can see the fun on these boys' faces! The colors are a bit strange (too blue or something), but I'm guessing it's just from weird reflections on an overcast day.

Thanks for sharing!
