Hi all, new to the forum.

I'm going to the lakes in a couple of weeks for the first time in 15 years.

Last time I was there I took the attached picture and want to return there for sentimental reasons. Unfortunately, I've no idea where it is!

A long shot I know, but anyone recognise where it might be?

Many thanks.

Dave. [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WaIfWbW69eATNztpTHd9z3K9TfnulGG8/view?usp=drivesdk]

Looks like the image is private.

Yeah, now I can see it although strangely squashed.

Anyway, it's taken from Helvellyn looking north east-ish. Red Tarn is below, the slopes of Catstye Cam shown to the left, Birkhouse Moor ahead, off to the right is Striding Edge, and the 'L' shaped lake top left is Ullswater.
