The identification of the locations in the background of this photo is non-obvious. Where is the CBD, I was thinking. And then I was trying to make out landmarks at goat island or east balmain. Actually, the view is looking east from McMahons Point and the cbd is out of shot on the right.

This ferry is supposedly at McMahon's point, which is not the one right under the bridge.
