"The weather affects all of our lives and this picture captures that perfectly. Brooklyn Bridge provides an iconic backdrop, but it is the combined effect of snow, wind and freezing temperatures on the people trying to cross the bridge that tells the whole story—it sends a shiver down my spine."
The Royal Meteorological Society and AccuWeather received over 7,700 entries for their Weather Photographer of the Year competition, showcasing diverse weather phenomena including rivers, clouds, and thunderstorms. Rudolf Sulgan claimed the grand prize for his photograph depicting people traversing the Brooklyn Bridge during a severe blizzard. The image effectively captures weather's profound impact on human life through the combined effects of snow, wind, and freezing temperatures. Liz Bentley, Chief Executive of the Royal Meteorological Society and competition judge, praised the photograph for its powerful storytelling, noting how the iconic bridge backdrop combined with harsh weather conditions creates a compelling visual narrative that demonstrates weather's universal influence on daily existence.
