Almost, I wasn’t quite at Paddy’s Nut yet. But close enough.
It’s from the delightful little sandstone shelf on the Ossa side of the Paddy’s Nut-Ossa saddle

Ah yes I know the spot. Had a nice lunch there when I visited.

Anyone else can go, I'm away from my pictures at the moment.

It's similar to the view from Tyndall but seems a little lower. Huntley Lookout or Walford Peak?
