21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A sunset at Diamond Harbor, Hooghly River, West Bengal, India

I went to a mini getaway for one day to Diamond Harbour, West Bengal - 49 kilometres away from my city. Around 5:21 pm, this red sunset was captured by me at the river bank. There were a few icecream sellers, street food sellers along the bank. The decorative lamp posts shone at the bank. As you can see, the street light is yet to be turned on. Many tourists come here for a quick getaway, and the local economy depends on the money spent on evening snacks, and tickets bought to enter specific tourist spots.
