Beached Mother
After laying a clutch of eggs, this mother olive ridley sea turtle pauses for a moment on the beach before continuing on to the ocean. To protect the half-million vulnerable eggs laid on this beach, volunteers were asked to stand guard. "I'll surely be one of them," writes Your Shot photographer Siddharth Khadanga.
