New Camera Info!
I have added the new Inner Harbor Camera to duluthharborcam.com. The camera will capture boats entering the harbor and enable us to enjoy daily harbor traffic as ships from around the world visit the Duluth Harbor.
As with most technology, there will be glitches and technical difficulties on a daily basis, especially with four separate cameras feeding one page.
Please be patient with me as I fumble through operation of the cameras and networks, I certainly am no expert at this, but, I do love watching the boats and sharing life on the harbor.
Don't hesitate to let me know when things are not working right, I won't take offense.
Sincerely,
Dennis

News
FYI,
There are some exciting developments at duluthharborcam.com.
I will be adding a new camera that will take in a sweeping view of the Aerial Lift Bridge operation and the harbor area near the bridge.
The camera is located in a premier location atop the old LaFarge Cement Plant near Bayfront Park.
This state of the art camera will provide web sized images of the area and also higher resolution images that I will be posting for use as wallpaper images and prints.
I am currently working out bugs with the network system and expect to be adding the camera next week.
Also, by request I will be slowing the boat videos down a bit in order that you can get a better glimpse of daily harbor traffic.
I appreciate your comments and will continue to strive to make your visit here as enjoyable as mine.
Below is a re-published video from yesterday, in order for you to compare the speeds.
Best Regards,
Dennis
