WA most featured State in stunning Bureau of Meteorology calendar

Predicting the right moment to snap a photograph is the biggest test for those behind the lens.

For Rusli Hashim, the nights spent in the cold Tasmanian winters were worth it, with his dream image captured in the early hours of the morning following an all-night stakeout.

His photograph of the elusive Aurora australis flashing over water is one of 12 handpicked by the Bureau of Meteorology for its 2025 weather calendar.

Featuring metrological extremes — from fantastical billowing dust clouds over Merredin to the sun beaming over fog-covered land in Mornington and Exmouth’s solar eclipse from last year — the images were selected from more than 500 entered by eager *********** photographers.

“The photos offer a glimpse into the science behind how the weather works and how the Bureau’s services meet the needs of the *********** community and industries,” the Bureau of Meteorology’s Andrea Peace said.

“Some of the fascinating weather phenomena captured on camera in this year’s selection include unusual cloud formations known as Cirrus uncinus, glowing anticrepuscular sun rays, a glorious sunrise in regional WA, a colourful Aurora australis and moody thunderstorms.”
