Musings of a middle aged misfit.
Such an imposing entrance to my favourite building in Sydney. I hope to pop down there on Wednesday evening for the Archibald's. Reminds me of the facade in Dublin that was shot-up during the Easter Uprising of 1916 ... for some godforsaken reason!!
That was the Bank of Ireland building wasn't it?
A quick read of Wiki leads me to conclude that it was the General Post Office. There is a photo at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_Rising
When I see black and white shots like these it reminds of the photos my dad took around the city in the 1960s.Sydney - City and Suburbs
