Most 3-D pictures are looked at with a viewing device, but you can also enjoy stereo photographs by freeviewing. For the third-dimension to be revealed you must first "fuse" two images, bring them together. The links below contain examples and viewing instructions.

Walleye Viewing -  The left image is viewed with the left eye, and the right image viewed with the right eye. This works well for images that are small and spaced the same distance as your eyes. If the images are too large or too far apart the eyes would are forced to diverge from each other,  hence the term "walleyed". Not everyone can easily view this way, and for them crosseye viewing is often easier.

Crosseye Viewing - The opposite of Walleye. The left image is on the right and vice-versa. The images are fused by crossing the eyes. This is more natural to some people as our eyes normally cross when we view and focus up close. This is the preferred method for larger photographs.

Visit the links above to see which works better for you.

 

STEREOGRAPHY
Stereography is nothing new, it is almost as old a photography itself. There are numerous stereo images of the Civil War for instance and images that were taken years before that. When you look at those photos you feel as if you are standing on the battlefield. Not surprisingly many early images are of dogs and cats too.

Although it's fun to look at stereo images of unfamiliar places and people, it's even more fun to look at stereo photographs of your family, friends, and your pets. You will see detail that you would never notice in a "flat" picture. Some say it's the closest thing to time travel.

This old technology is still available today. Many photographers around the country have the knowledge and equipment to capture your family and pets in 3-D, images that you can cherish for years to come. When people look at their work, the most common response is "WOW!" You will know what I mean the first time you see your family or pets in 3-D.
