Thanks Nupur Yes, that is a street lamp behind a naked tree (and a couple of raindrops in the top left part of the picture). I was looking for some classic rain/night shot when I spotted this and thought it looked very pretty. The circular pattern is probably some illusion caused by the interplay of light and drops. Later, I googled and found out that others have wondered about it too — http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=494821
Yes, you are right. I should starting adding notes to the pics. About this pic, I have been meaning to go to the same spot during day time and at night when it is not wet for the sake of comparison! will update you when I figure out how much of an illusion it really is
gosh! this looks artistic… what exactly is this? tree?
Thanks Nupur

Didn’t realise this was an illusion! (another example where a few lines of commentary would be perfect
)

It is so beautiful, how did you take a photo like this?
Thank you Ning! I think I was lucky. The biggest challenge was to go out in the cold though
