Blimey. Hints - Is actually quite a wide panorama. Eye height probably about 150km +. You can see parts of 2 countries here.

Wow! I didn't realise they were so close. That's about 35km and looks like you can ALMOST walk across the reefs.

It is Castle Stalker

I'm not sure which particular thing about it is special but there is info here and here.

It was in Monty Python's Holy Grail as Castle Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh (it was also in Highlander but that was less noteworthy)

Easy, checked out this cache after a previous picture. :lol:
It's the Isle of Kings "high "light" cache on King Island.

The cache appears to be at the tree directly east when I look at it in Google Earth, it's slightly further north in your picture... :?
