This photograph was taken for Pix magazine and reflected Moore's reaction to his home city after seven years away. I was interested to see the changes à Traffic had irrevocably altered Circular Quay with the building of the Cahill Expressway. New office accommodation was rising in the international architectural style of the time - the glass curtain wall.

This photograph was included in the David Moore 100 Photographs series that toured the State Library of NSW (titled David Moore 100 photographs) in late 2005. The exhibition then travelled to Monash Gallery of Art, Melbourne, in 2006, changing its title to David Moore A Vision, 1927-2003; and then to Bendigo Art Gallery (2006), Shepparton Art Gallery (2006), Albury Regional Art Gallery (2007), Gold Coast City Art Gallery (2007), Wollongong City Gallery (2007), Mildura Arts Centre (2008), and finally to LaTrobe Regional Gallery (2008). A Limited Edition of the series was also produced.
