Book excerpt: David Moore's Pictures from the Real World is a powerful collection of colour documentary photographs of families on a council estate in Derby, made between 1987 and 1988. At the time, few documentary photographers worked in colour and Moore's choice was in many ways a rebellion against the prevalent aesthetic. It was also a critical response to the new political and social realities imposed by Thatcher's government.The series retains a visceral energy 25 years after the event and documents a very particular time in British social and photographic history.
