The razorback ridge that leads to the Hydrographers hut is in view - so I suspect you might be on Oakleigh

Oops - I should have realised your elevation is quite low.

The two other games cover the rest of Australia and the rest of the world. But for those you only have to come up with what's in the photo, not where the person was standing when they took the photo. :)
