Harborcam Upgrade in progress


Our new "Streaming" Harborcam installed. --- While I have some tweaking left to do on the new harborcam, it is up and running.

Comment:  Many thanks to those of you who donated to fund this camera. It is hard to believe that from December 3rd to today, the 12th, we raised the $1500, order the camera, and have it installed.  WOW - All I can say is thank you so much.

About the new camera view.  While the view seems a bit distant, I tried to include as much of the harbor as possible, so that the combination of the Bayfront Cam and the Harbor Cam will just about give us full coverage.

I will continue to adjust all six cameras that we have now and hope that you enjoy the different  viewing options.

Breaking into the Light - AmericanSpirit


While a rather common scene in Duluth, the big boats on big water is still eye catching delight. The American Spirit pushed out of the Duluth Shipping canal. (from the files)

Bentleyville Kaleidoscope


The lights at the Bentleyville "Tour of Lights 2014" are a phenomenal scene to behold, but, this view is one you might miss when you visit.
Here is the view looking straight up inside the towering 128ft high Christmas tree, covered with more then 100,000 LED lights.
If you would like to jump into the tree and take a look around for yourself -  CLICK HERE

Sunset Ice Fishing on the Duluth-Superior Harbor


If you look on the Harborcam during the day, way down the bay, you will see a bunch of small black dots on the ice.  This is the flock of Ice Fishermen that love to hit the ice as soon as it freezes up.

I stopped by at sunset to take a quick look from above with my little photocopter.
