Not Cooleman Ridge, a fair distance from there. Conceptually similar though.

Not there either. You are about the same distance away from me as the previous guess but in the opposite direction.

If my research is correct this might be cliffs off the Nadgee-Cape Howe Track near Bunyip Waterhole.

There's a lot of zoom in that photo. I wonder if it's Mt Zeil.

Probably the Olgas. But if you are zooming a long way I am not sure what answer you are after.
The shape is roughly that of the biggest block there

Nothing obscure eggs, just the name of the feature/s.
Yes Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) from the substantial Dune Viewing Area off the road between there and Uluru/Yulara.
