Small historic brick lighthouse on the Fort Monroe shoreline overlooking Hampton Roads and the Chesapeake Bay. Shoot intimate architectural details, shoreline compositions with tidal reflections, and wide scenes that include Fort Monroe's bastions and piers. Best at golden hour — sunrise for warm light on the east-facing tower and long coastal shadows; sunset yields strong silhouettes against colorful skies. Fort Monroe National Monument has public access, picnic parking near the Visitor Center;
