Challenge 430: Robot eyes
As I was waiting on the platform at Amsterdam station for the train to the airport a few weeks ago, I was struck by the appearance of the security cameras, which had the look of a friendly pair of almost Disneyesque robot eyes. They look at their best rather more from the side than my front-on capture seen here, but I'm always slightly wary of photographing security cameras in a public place, so this is the best surreptitious shot I could get.

Your challenge: can you turn the cameras around so we see them from more of a three-quarter angle? Of course, I can't stop you building a robot to house them if you're that way inclined.

High res is here.

Well I know it's not quite what Steve intended, but I thought a robot would be fun, and it was.
Anna, love your challenge. It takes me a while to think of one, and you have come up with loads, very funny.

Re: Challenge 430: Robot eyes
Really enjoying all your entries
There is always one problem coming late how to live up to similar high standard. I don't think I have a problem with "creative", most times, but yes with time then available to execute. (My problem, live it)

Only comments on last two,
1) I did not think he had a brain. He can't engage to many,
and
2) like the swamp
