It was taken from the ridge between Bruach na Frithe and Sgurr na Bairnich (S of the summit of BnF).

The person in the photograph is looking over the three peaks of Bidein Druim nan Ramh to the rest of the ridge unfolding to SW.

Thanks very much! Have only explored the Coire Lagan area on previous trips, will definitely be heading up here on my next visit.

Do we get extra points for identifying the person? Google has him as Finlay Wilde....but I didn't think he stopped to look around.
