This was outside the Barnes & Nobles bookstore in Newport News.
I don't know whose bike it is.
I was looking for something to try to take a stereograph of and this is the first thing I came across.

If you're not familiar with stereographs, look it up or have someone explain it to you. 2 two-dimensional images become 1 three-dimensional image.

This is my first attempt at a stereograph, I think it turned out decently.

Hey, i've got a couple stereographs in my gallery too! i find doing macro stereographic photography to be easier than distant stereography because, well, it's easier, you don't have to deal with as many elements :shrug: i love stereography, and this is an excellent example of it. the foreground is very discernable, but as subjects get farther and further back, like the cars in the lot, or even the needles on the tree, it gets harder to piece together. it looks really great, especially for your first attempt at such a difficult field of photography!

Really good work here... I'm like you. So used to looking at these without viewers that it's just natural.

You should do some more...

That's pretty cool!

I'm the same as the "puremyth", I can only look at Magic Eye books crosseyed. But I was able to do the same thing with this bike thing and it looks pretty neat.

I'm not sure how you're supposed to view these things, so I took it into photoshop, swapped the two images around, then just did the crosseyed method, and that worked well. After a minute of staring and trying to relax my eyes, I could see the back end of the bike in vivid, clear, focussed 3D. Now I'm waiting fo rmy eyes to recover.... :D I think this might work more easily with clear geometric shapes.

Apparently some people can do the walleyed method (opposite of crosseyed) by focussing beyond the image plane (this is what the Magic Eye illusions depend on) but my eyes absolutely refuse to do that under any circumstances. I think the relationship between the lens focus of each eye, and the convergence angle between the eyes is especailly strong with me, so I can't fool it so easily. But crosseyed I can do, because it can be easily forced anyway.

I'm so used to looking at them that I can just do it without thinking about it. I guess in the walleyed method, but I'm not really sure.

Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. :)
