EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Greg Wood from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we witness the majestic Spirit of Tasmania III, a German-built ocean-going passenger and car ferry, gracefully gliding under the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge. The photograph was taken on April 10,2005, during one of its return trips between Sydney and Tasmania - Australia's only island state. The Spirit of Tasmania III is an impressive vessel measuring 174 meters in length and weighing a staggering 23,663 tonnes. Its sleek design and sheer size command attention as it navigates through the glistening waters surrounding the bustling cityscape. As the ferry passes beneath the architectural marvel that is Sydney Harbour Bridge, it symbolizes not just a mode of transportation but also represents the strong maritime connection between mainland Australia and its island state. This image encapsulates both power and elegance as two engineering marvels converge harmoniously against a backdrop of clear blue skies. Wood's expertly composed vertical shot highlights every detail with precision – from the ship's grandeur to each individual beam supporting the bridge above. The contrast between man-made structures against nature's beauty creates an awe-inspiring scene that captures our imagination. This remarkable photograph serves as a reminder of Australia's rich maritime heritage while showcasing its stunning landscapes. It invites us to appreciate both human ingenuity and natural wonders intertwined in perfect harmony within this vast continent down under.
