With thanks to the excellent Waterfalls of Tasmania site I think this could be Timbs/Lonnavale Falls.
Neither are official names I believe.

This is indeed the unofficially named Lonnavale Falls. There was also a sign there that said "Paul's Falls" - the Nomenclature board needs to make a decision haha.

Much closer but not Mt Cullen. It could have a similar aspect, I haven't been up there.

So the rocky one is Helder - and its hard to pick Coronation at the back, but somehow taken from the Sentinel Range?

Not quite but very close eggs, probably not the typical shot from here. I have others that are a giveaway.

From comments I've read over the years I think I'm one of the lucky ones. Seems it often gets clagged in.
Pretty much had clear 360 degree views. Bit of zoom past the eastern end of the Sentinels. All yours eggs.
