Here is one of the photos we took of Cape Charles from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. It's a ways out there. This was with a 70-300mm.

Remember, I actually stopped the car, crossed the highway and got off on the side of the road nearest the lighthouse. Do that at your own risk as there are signs posted saying not to stop.

I'm not sure what I was thinking at the time because I'm pretty good at following the rules. I think I was just caught up in getting a picture of this lighthouse.

Anyway, hope this pic helps.
