A method and apparatus for remote surveillance of a premises using graphic image captures of the premises under surveillance is disclosed. An intermediary web server is used to bridge the connection between a computer-camera and, e.g, a cell phone or other computer device so that images of the premises under surveillance can be viewed remotely. The computer, camera and server arrangement eliminates many of the configuration and network security problems associated with existing surveillance systems. The system of the invention records individual pictures at a rapid rate, rather than "movies." This allows the application software or program which implements the system to run in the background on a client PC while other application programs are also running on the PC.
