Yikes! It seems the photographer was at the top of the spire of St James King Street. Brave! Google Maps satellite 3D - www.google.com.au/maps/@-33.8691532,151.2109526,60a,35y,1...

Fascinating to compare with this different photo ("c. 1871") from the same steeple - collection.hht.net.au/firsthhtpictures/fullRecordPicture.... from an album (1872) - collection.hht.net.au/firsthhtpictures/fullRecord.jsp?rec...

Another poor print off the same negative … collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/1bGdJdPY Same day, different time (the sun's come out) … collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/1l4d5LK1/KdEpQGQ3NDzxa Dated circa 1871-1872 But, other than a few hansom cabs, not a person or other vehicle in sight!
beachcomber australia said:
Philip Cohen That's great! A panorama in 3D - I wonder if is possible to join them all together in virtual 3D. The HHT photos are earlier - see the 'new' GPO at foundation stage here - library.sydneylivingmuseums.com.au/images_linked/recno368... - and nearing completion in the stereoview pano - files02.sl.nsw.gov.au/fotoweb/public_archive/1063/1063711... I can't find anything (yet) in Trove about photographers climbing up St James' steeple with their trusty tripods ...

" ... In April 1871, Henry Lucas, who Merlin had employed a month before, was charged with embezzlement. Employed to canvas for orders on a 10% commission he said he was given: ‘a set of ten pictures of Sydney, taken from the tower of St. James’s Church, and witness delivered him a set; defendant made out a bill to Mr. Cowlshaw for the pictures, £4, and witness receipted the bill for Mr. Merlin; the defendant should have brought either the money or the pictures and the bill, but witness did not see him again until now; the pictures were the property of Mr. Merlin.’65 " From - geoffbarker.wordpress.com/2018/11/25/beaufoy-merlin-showm... Which implies that there was a set of 10 photos taken from St James before April 1871, for the American and Australasian Photographic Company.
