Stereograph/3D photo


Here are two more 3D photos. The life size space shuttle replica was taken at the Kennedy Space Center. The Paris look alike was taken at EPCOT.

They were taken last May. I went to Florida for the May 14 launch of space shuttle Atlantis. It was supposed to be Atlantis's last launch, but Atlantis was called to fly the very last shuttle mission this June. Launch viewing tickets were hard to get. I did not book flight and room until after I had secured a viewing ticket. Not knowing the area, so I decided to stay at a Disney World resort. One phone call and they took care of everything just 2 weeks before launch date. I only bring my 3D camera to special events.

The colour shake is cool! I especially like the plane. I'll come back to these if i get my hands on some 3d glasses but it is interesting like this too :)

Simon,

Lea lives in Seattle.

Lea, if you email me your mailing address, I'll drop one off in the mail for you. They are light and flat, so it will only be first class postage, I think.

Stereograph/3D photo


Reading Moby Dick got me interested in stereo vision which Moby Dick lacked. I bought a LOREO 3D camera which has 2 lenses. Releasing the shutter results two images (1 frame) on the negative. If you manage to see the left image with your left eye and right image with your right eye; the image will appear to have depth. Special viewers make the task easier. Maker magazine pointed me to a free download (Anaglph Maker) which can convert stereographs to images viewable by more common red & blue viewer. Attached photo was taken in Disney World EPCOT last May. I have plenty of red & blue viewers. Just let me know how many you need, I'll pass them to Gail. \ (^0^) /

Very cool, Simon. I'll need one set to see this picture, and also in anticipation of your future pictures.

Thanks,

Warren
