I wanted to get to that one while shooting all the others on Cape Cod, but when I looked up what it took to get there, I wouldn't have had the time. That's a good 4 mile walk to and from the parking lot on gravel and sand. Glad for you that you were able to shoot it.

I definitely wouldn't have walked that, that sand was deep! I just pulled over, and hopped out when I spotted this vantage point.

I wasn't aware that the public was able to drive out to the lighthouse on that park service "road."

You can drive down to the lighthouse, if you have a four-wheel drive.

Here is a snippet from their website

That counts my Prius out right there. So for me that means walking or hoverboard. Thanks for the info.

One of these days I'll do it. I don't think I'll have a problem walking to the lighthouse. Its the walking back that'll kill me

If anyone ever wants a ride out let me know, I'll take any excuse for some time off work!

Moonset yesterday at the Sakonnet Point lighthouse, Rhode Island.

That is a really neat shot.

Your exif shows shot at 400mm, was there an extender here too, or just 400mm? Killer shot!

Just the 400 lens, no extenders. The photo is cropped. Thank you!
