Part of the global Lenticular Photo Camera Series. Each pin is an instant camera with a picture at the top. The picture is a lenticular image of one or more local landmarks. Lenticular means that tilting the pin causes the picture on it to move back and forth between multiple images. In this case, tilting the picture causes the scene to shift between day and night.
