Does anyone know if you can get a decent picture of Pumkin Island in Maine without going on a boat. I have a 70-300 lens Fran

Fran, Here's a link to some photos I took of Pumkin Island- you be the judge. http://tinyurl.com/a6h24y Scroll down as the photos are about halfway down. It was taken with my Panasonic Lumix with the equivalent of a 36-432mm lens. I'd venture to say that the photo was taken at the maximum zoom (12X optical) Dennis

Fran, It's in the town of Castine right on the waterfront. Here's a link to some reviews of the place- you might recognize the last one- http://www.yelp.com/biz/dennetts-wharf-castine Dennis

Fran, don't know if you're still interested in Pumpkin Island, but following the directions in the Kochel/D'Entremont book (and I think the standard location for viewing), I got this shot with my 75-300: And for scale, here's my truck parked in the viewing area with the light.
