Malik Ghat flower market is the largest of its kind in India. Located in Calcutta, next to the Hooghly river, it attracts more than 2,000 sellers each day, who flock to peddle their blooms amid frantic scenes.

   

2. “Saudade” by Tzion Essel depicts love and heartbreak with poetic black-and-white imagery.

   

3. “Shadows and Colours” by Unu Mamu.
