The word Manly is displayed on the bathers of a member of the Manly Surf Life Saving Club near Sydney on May 13, 2012. The Manly club is something of a breeding ground for elite athletes, with members competing at the Olympics since 1908, including champion swimmers, kayakers and even one winter Olympics skiier among them.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Greg Wood from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are transported to the iconic Manly Beach near Sydney, Australia. The image showcases a member of the esteemed Manly Surf Life Saving Club proudly displaying the word "Manly" on their bathing suit. The significance of this simple yet powerful display lies in the rich history and legacy of the club itself. Established in 1908, the Manly Surf Life Saving Club has long been recognized as a breeding ground for elite athletes, with its members competing at various Olympic Games since its inception. As we delve deeper into this photograph, it becomes evident that these exceptional individuals have excelled not only in swimming but also in kayaking and even winter sports such as skiing at the Olympics. This remarkable versatility is a testament to their unwavering dedication and commitment to their craft. Wood's expert composition beautifully captures both the serenity of Manly Beach and the strength exuded by this athlete adorned with pride for their club. The vibrant colors against a backdrop of golden sand and azure waters create an atmosphere that is simultaneously invigorating and tranquil. This print serves as a reminder of how one place can nurture extraordinary talent over generations while embodying resilience, athleticism, and camaraderie. It encapsulates both personal achievements and collective triumphs within an organization deeply rooted in sporting excellence – truly capturing a moment frozen in time that celebrates human potential.
