I found this image on a page of European webcams. Detroit Steve sent me the link along with a note: "Europe was all a blaze last night." I assume he was talking about the night sky. If you click on View on the toolbar at the top, and then click on Thumbnails of image history, you can easily get to last nights images.
At least some of the cameras are recording 4K images. This particular webcam isn't too great for viewing the night sky - the tram station is all lit up.
P. S. Google Maps Satellite View now has 3D effects even in 2D mode. They may have had it for a while but I just noticed while looking at this tram station on top of a mountain. You are no longer just looking straight down, now you are looking from a point at some altitude, so you have vertical perspective.
