Today's edition features India's snow-capped scenes and we begin with this image of shot by Amol Tavkar of the Gurudongmar Lake that is India's highest lake, located at 17,100 feet above mean sea level.
"The lake presents a mesmerizing view and makes one wonder if heaven can be any prettier than this. The place is about 70 km from a village called Lachen in North Sikkim," Tavkar writes.
