The angle matches Pelion East, but the rock type seems Cathedral - so maybe Bishop Peak?

Looks like Pelion West, so viewed from somewhere between Twin Spires and Cathedral in the gap between Pelion East and Ossa?

I was trying to find the exact pool, and it is indeed halfway between Twin Spires & Cathedral

I had a quick look on google maps and thought I could spot something similar looking, and it was the only remaining place to really make sense! I feel like I stole this one a little. I'll wait for confirmation from Last I guess.

Looks like Wylds and Shakespeare in the horizon.

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:
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...

Look, NNW has pretty much said flame peak
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

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

Last is a long way off. Graham nearly has it, but I want the name of what I am standing next to.

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.
