Can't see how you would get that angle on Wylds/Shakespeare and the rest of those ridges anywhere but the Spires range, or possibly the northern PoWs.
In fact, I have an almost identical horizon (minus the fancy sky) taken from False Dome. Your shot seems to be a bit further along the ridge, so I'll start with the Font.

And, with a little more digging through that folder - taken from the terraces just above the Font:

Not a game photo


I think the ridges line up nicely there.

It is indeed directly above The Font, but not on those terraces, and a bit higher up, which means it is on...

Well, I don't have a shot from Flame Peak with which to compare it, but there''s not much choice is there?

Yup, that's it. A beautiful morning up there with the mist coming and going. All yours!

Well, I was closer to the sign outside it, but that will do.
The place gets some stunning light early morning and late evening.

It was a pretty spot. Loved the Douglas River pools there.

That's it. Quite a contrast in weather from when we came in.

It's such a nice vista there. Especially if there's some cloud caught in the valley - awesome.

Loyetea is the closest, but not quite there yet. This is a much more frequently visited location.
