From the pictures Prothom Alo's photographers took across Bangladesh on 23 October, these are the ones of fields, markets, livestock and the environment, described in our own words.

Early winter vegetables have reached Pabna's Boro Bazar, where cauliflower sells for Tk 70 to 80 a kilo (photo: Hasan Mahmud).
On the service road of the Dhaka-Mawa highway at Ikuria, South Keraniganj, rubbish heaps set on fire are sending up smoke, polluting the air and making the road hard to use (photo: Dipu Malakar).
The day's other pictures, of children playing hadudu, an idol being made, a road blockade, passengers waiting at the airport and lungi yarn drying, are not included here.
