That's close enough
Its from the top of Mt Tyndall (or close to it as it is fairly spread out along the cliff top)

Your turn

Hoooleeeeeee This island really would be bigger than the mainland if they ironed it, it sure has got some bumpy bits!
I recognize the Pandani. Or one like it...

this certainly put the wind up me - but if you peer carefully you can make out Mt Rugby in the distance.
Don't ask me what the closer mountains are called, but its got me thinking

OK - I will hazard a guess that it is on the track between Stuart Saddle and Goon Moor in the Eastern Arthurs.

Its a great photo and it gives me a bit of a tingle, as that is the track I have started to plan on for the next trip to the island.

Can't be from that high, and the angle is wrong.

Hmmmmm :?

Is it maybe half may up to High Camp, in spring?

from Schnells Ridge then?

Half way up is about the right height, but you are still correct about the angle being wrong.

Mt Solitary is the ridge on the far right exiting the page.

Yes - Norts has got it. We were halfway up Schnells looking back to Scotts Peak (the island)
Curious how these posts cross over!!
Not spring - it was in early Jan this year

A bit of a guess - Wylds Craig?

I reckon you're right.
I've been staring at it, knowing it's familiar. That bushy ridge below to the left looks SO familiar.
I'm so sure you're right I would invite you to go looking for your next photo.
I just checked my images - same :(
I should have got that.

Hmmm, yes, I was a bit off;
now that I look at it you are definitely right Kramster, shelf camp it is.
I'd say you could run with next one?
