These are SOOO cool. Nice job. I love it when you lock focus onto the center image and you can look around and see all the different depths. The flower is really good for that, lots of different levels in that one. I'd keep looking at them but I might tip over again.

Thanks for sharing.
Don't want to hi-jack the thread so I PM'd you a link to my "action" 3-D.

Thanks Mickey- checked your action pic- don't know how you did that- 3-D dogs in mid-air !!!

OMG! This is the first time I've ever been able to see your shots in 3D and Wow!!! The second image, with a very distinct insect in a green background makes it much easier to lock your eyes where they need to be.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but how do you create these?
Thanks again for the comments
Poseidon- viewing instructions
These can be viewed as is by slightly de-focusing your eyes and then cross them until an image appears in the middle and then relax your eyes to get a stable 3-D image. It's worth the trouble!
But don't overdo it if you have difficulty- try again later.(headache warning)
Ariel - congrats- once you have managed to do one it's a lot easier the next time.
Done by taking 2 shots with a small amount of sideways movement between the shots (about 1/30th of the subject distance). I then use the freeware prog stereophotomaker to horizontally align the pics, set the stereo window (how far the subject appears to be behind the frame) and to swap the pics over to make a cross-eye stereogram.
You can do these with any type of pics but for non macro shots you tend to be moving the camera much more ie one or two sideways steps.
MAN !!! This is the first time I heard of this (been away a while, had exams) and it's so cool !!!! I had to try a couple of minutes before it worked but it's well worth it !!!!!
GREAT GREAT JOB !!
Thanks Tom- they are great when you get them to work for the first time .
Luckily it's a bit like riding a bike- once you have done it it's much easier to do it again. I've got so used to viewing these- my eyes/brain do them automatically, can be quite painful if it turns out a pair of pics is not a stereo pair.
BTW if anyone is worried about damaging their eyes doing these- I had a quote from another 3-D specialist that their opthalmist reckoned it was actually good eye exercise doing these, and no you won't go permanently cross-eyed.

Well I'm also curious about that "action" 3D shot.
Would you mind posting the link?
