Got to be Scotland Caz. I' sure someone will recognise that mountain.  ;)

Bet it is identified before I google "tors of Scotland images".

I agree, it does look like Scotland, so here's hoping someone recognises the mountain.  :)

I was going to suggest the obvious - Ben Nevis. But need to do some more digging to see if I am way off. ;)

Added. No. Think I'm way wrong.  :-[

I agree with Despair - it could well be Yr Eifl. I think the sea is in the right place! Looking through the various stock photos, I can't see one from that angle though....

Sticking with the Scottish theme, I'm going to randomly suggest Ben More. (though I haven't found a photo taken from the same angle as Caz's the peaky things look a bit similar  :-\)

I looked for Yr Eifl but couldn't see a good photo of it ...
