p.1 #1 · Valley of Fire - 3D


Just for grins I decided to try to make a stereoscopic image in the Valley of Fire State Park. This is a first effort at something like this so as you might expect there is a learning curve to getting it right. I find it a little harder to bring into focus than the ones John Richter has been posting regularly but it does allow a fun view into the topography of the VOF once your eyes adjust.

A quick primer on how to view a stereoscopic image: Viewing stereoscopic images

Thanks for looking and C&C always welcome.

Grins indeed! I'd stare at that for days if I wasn't worried about my eyes getting stuck. I didn't have too much trouble focusing once I put my glasses on. I would have never guessed there were that many layers to it just by looking at a single image.

Alan, works fine for me......you can have a lot of fun with these images...try varying the exposures and PP on each separate image to see what happens!
cheers Andrew

Great. I've seen these before can you explain how you shoot them?

In this case I took one shot and then stepped sideways about 18" and took another. Both were hand held. I tried to use thee same spot on one of the more distant features as the focal point of the scene. As I understand it I should have made the second shot with a focal point just to the side to match the change in position.

Shooting 3D

I should have read that before going to such a neat place to try it out.

I think I have a handicap for viewing these, Alan. Have tried so many times with John's images, and have never had any luck. Hope you're doing well.

Cheers,
Ed

You succeeded, all right. Well done. I also didn't see the different layers just looking at the single images.

No problem seeing the 3D Alan!

Thanks for doing this.

I love looking at these, I think it helps exercise my eyes.

Very nice. Although it does seem you have a dust bunny in the sky.

Hi Alan,

Very nice. Popped right in for me. It's a little harder on the eyes when viewing the landscape style 3D's. It seems I need to go further with the crossing of the eyes. It is suggested to shoot portrait style for 3D for this reason I suspect.

Cool shot, I hope you shot more of these down there.
