Having a sign hidden in the foliage was good enough for me.

Damn, I blotted out the sign in the foreground but missed that one.
I'll leave the current photo to let someone else have a turn. If not, I have an answer ready.

On a more positive note you are of course 100% correct.

I assume that means NZ. I'll take a WAG at looking seaward from the entrance to Doubtful Sound.

This isn't really a fjord. It has a Chelonian name.

Not much to go on in the photo. Considering the clue, is it on or looking at Turtle Island, Fiji?

Thanks Last.
This ones of a Substantial Mountain peak in the Himalayas, taken from an ancient Capital of the country I was in.
Clouds prevented the even bigger mount being in the picture on the left.

24 hours Hint time:
This mountain is in the top 20 (just) but rarely climbed and certainly not lately- The one out of shot behind on the left is in the top 10 (just) highest in the world (and is climbed every season)
The ancient Capital is known for its fierce fighting forces to this day.

48 hours hint.
The mountain ( not visible behind it) is Manaslu at 8163m elevation. #8 highest mountain.
the mountain in question has 3 main peaks and the main one is nearly an 8000er.
