| David Moore Martin Place 5.10pm Sydney [100 Photographs, pl. 015] 1949 Gelatin silver print David Moore Estate © Courtesy of the David Moore Estate LL/32038 Martin Place was a great source of images. My special time was near high summer, when the western sun illuminated the canyon like a studio spotlight as the early evening exodus from the offices began. Punctuated by the AWA radio tower piercing the western sky the chasm of the street was fertile and vital, expressing the essence of the city to my youthful eyes.
