Air Pollution Beach Beaches Bushfire Pollution Smog Smoke Surf Hazard Wollongong
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the alarming smoke hazard reduction efforts taking place in Holsworthy, a military reserve located in Sydney's south. The image showcases thick plumes of smoke billowing across Wollongong's picturesque northern beaches, creating an eerie and unsettling atmosphere. Taken on Friday, August 3,2018, by renowned photographer Dean Lewins from Australian Associated Press (AAP), this photograph serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing bushfire threat faced by communities near Sydney. For nearly a week, residents along Wollongong's beachside suburbs have been witnessing the impact of this fire-induced smog originating from Holsworthy. The picture perfectly encapsulates the hazardous conditions that have engulfed these coastal areas due to air pollution caused by the blaze. The juxtaposition between the idyllic beaches and the looming presence of smoke creates a sense of urgency and concern for both locals and visitors alike. This image not only highlights the immediate danger posed by bushfires but also raises awareness about long-term consequences such as environmental degradation and health risks associated with prolonged exposure to smog. Dean Lewins' skillful composition allows viewers to appreciate both nature's beauty and its fragility simultaneously. Through his lens, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect our environment against such hazards while appreciating Australia's stunning coastline that is cherished by surfers and beachgoers worldwide.
