Where's this islet in Saguenay Québec?

Question

I lighted on this website that contains the picture beneath. It cites iStockphoto.com/jnnault, but this URL is broken. User AakashM found https://www.istockphoto.com/ie/photo/sagenay-fjord-quebec-canada-river-lake-forest-dramatic-sky-gm471692949-26144945, but this doesn't stipulate where in Saguenay's fjords.

Please edify me if 'islet' isn't the most fitting term.

As it turns out, just googling for that URL eventually leads you to the relevant area at istockphoto. Here's the page: istockphoto.com/ie/photo/… — AakashM, Jul 26 at 9:42

Here is a Google Street View link to the same location: https://goo.gl/maps/HGrRAdph9Z2Hu7nS7. This is a place called Le quai de Petit-Saguenay.

Thanks! How'd you determine this? – Greek - Area 51 Proposal Jul 29 at 4:26

@Greek-Area51Proposal: You said it was near Saguenay, so I looked for a part of the river that was (a) fairly wide, (b) not built up, (c) had a little island near the bank, and (d) probably near a road. The rocks piled in the very foreground of your picture did not appear to be a natural formation, so an artificial embankment was likely. – Greg Hewgill Jul 29 at 8:16
