Webcams & 360 degree pics

Here are a few webcams located on the Lofoten Islands.

Note:
Polar areas have very special daylight schemes all over the year.
In mid winter season (December in Norway), you will see the cams only display daylight images from approx. 10.30 am to 2.30 pm (depending on the geographic position). In summertime (June/July), however, the sun will hardly set and you won't be surprised to see lovely scenery images at 3 am.
