Sydneys Manly ferries plough through the waves after gale force winds, torrential rain and snow wreaked havoc across Sydney and surrounding areas on October 15, 2014. The New South Wales State Emergency Services (SES) responded to more than 1, 200 calls for help overnight as wind gusts of up to 160 kph (100 mph) brought down trees and up 170 mm (6.7 inches) of rain caused widespread flooding.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a fierce weather event that struck Sydney and its surrounding areas on October 15,2014. Taken by William West from Agence France-Presse (AFP), it showcases the resilience of Sydney's Manly ferries as they plow through tumultuous waves caused by gale force winds, torrential rain, and even snow. The image serves as a testament to the power of nature and the determination of those who navigate these treacherous waters. In this moment frozen in time, we witness the sheer force unleashed upon Sydney's harbor, leaving behind a trail of destruction. As wind gusts reached an astonishing speed of up to 160 kph (100 mph), trees were brought down like matchsticks while relentless rainfall measuring up to 170 mm (6.7 inches) triggered widespread flooding across the region. The New South Wales State Emergency Services (SES) responded heroically to over 1,200 calls for help overnight. Despite facing such adversity, Sydney's iconic Manly ferries continue their journey undeterred. Their steadfastness symbolizes Australia's indomitable spirit in the face of natural calamities. William West skillfully captures this panoramic scene with his lens; every detail is meticulously preserved – from the churning waves crashing against the ferry's bow to dark clouds looming overhead. This photograph stands as a reminder that even amidst chaos and turmoil, there is beauty in resilience and hope for calmer seas ahead.
