The Omega Transmitter was a huge 1,417-foot tall transmission tower near Woodside, Victoria, Australia, that was the tallest structure in the Southern Hemisphere until its demolition on April 22nd, 2015. Photographer Tom Blachford was on the scene, as he was hired by the Australian Defence Force to document everything with his camera.

If you do a search for photos of Palm Springs online, the vast majority of the results will show the city basked in the rays of Southern California sunshine. Photographer Tom Blachford wanted to take a different approach. For his project Midnight Modern, Blachford photographed the modernist homes of the resort city under only the light of a full moon.
