Cloudless blue skies surround the Sydney Harbour Bridge on May 22, 2012 as the city experiences its driest May since records began in 1859. Sydney has also been averaging 8.8 hours of sunshine per day, well above the average of 5.9 hours per day and more typical of longer summer days. AFP PHOTO / Greg WOOD / AFP PHOTO / GREG WOOD

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photo captures the breathtaking beauty of Sydney's iconic Harbour Bridge against a backdrop of cloudless blue skies. Taken on May 22,2012, this image showcases an unusual weather phenomenon that had gripped the city at that time. Sydney was experiencing its driest May since records began in 1859, with not a single cloud in sight. The picture also highlights another extraordinary aspect of this weather event – the abundance of sunshine. While Sydneysiders typically enjoy an average of 5.9 hours of sunlight per day, during this period they were basking in a remarkable 8.8 hours daily. This extended exposure to sunlight is more reminiscent of long summer days rather than the mild autumn season. Photographer Greg Wood has skillfully captured this unique combination of clear skies and abundant sunshine, creating an image that exudes tranquility and serenity. The composition draws attention to the grandeur and architectural marvels represented by the Harbour Bridge while emphasizing nature's role as both a powerful force and a source of awe-inspiring beauty. Wood's photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst record-breaking weather patterns, there is still room for appreciation and admiration for our surroundings. It encapsulates Sydney's resilience in adapting to these unusual conditions while showcasing its natural splendor for all to behold.
