Mt Jim Brown?
Edit - foreground is wrong. Maybe the Folded Range making the ridge on the RHS part of the same range.

NNW has time off for good behaviour and I am acting NNW. It's the Folded Range. If you could post more specifics of where this is, the direction of the pic and the mountains in the distance It would be nice.

In light of recent discussions bemoaning people wanting to go to exotic places because they have seen fantastic photos of the same..... 
[just between me and you - the peaks at back from left to right are Greystone Bluff, Mt Maconochie and the Propsting Range.
I would think NNW has just passed peak 966 [the top of the range] with ridge of 887 coming into view ]

Eggs, you have my sympathies. NNW said:
"From the Folded Range, not far from the highest point, looking roughly SW over Sculptured Mtn and Maconochie."
So I reckon it's over to you. In future, please note that I respond favourably to folding money and threats of blunt force trauma.

Being a map studier and with a healthy stock of photos from various places - I could suggest NNW may have confused Greystone with Sculptured.

Close. I think you will be right about Clumner Bluff - but the peak(s) in the middle is even better known...
McRae is a bit further away yet - so the lake below is...

That's the one. We went to the high spot above Lake Agnew before descending past it on the south.
Middle peaks are King Davids Peak and Mt Jerusalem [merging] and Pillinger is on the RHS.
