I've sorely needed a diversion since I lost my great-uncle and a couple
of weeks later losing a fantastic friend from my church congregation.
So I decided to finally have a go at stereoscopic photography.
I've seen many examples of the stereoscopic technique, and was always
fascinated with it, but I never bothered to try until just recently.
These are quick sample tests done from close range at home, but I'm
really looking forward to trying it out on subjects out in the field.
I think I'm really hooked on the whole thing now. 
Below are my very first two attempts.
The idea is that you go cross-eyed until the two images merge in your
sight to form a fully 3-D image. When done correctly, you'll actually
see 3 images, but the center one will combine in your focus to form
the 3-D image. Keep your face about 2 feet from your monitor, go
cross-eyed, bring the number of images in sight to 3, and concentrate
on locking focus with the middle image. Not everyone can see it, but
if/when you do, it's really amazing!

Superbly done, thanks for sharing! Fortunately I'm able to adjust my eyes very quickly, so 3D at most distances is not a problem for me. Now I'd like some 3D shots of outside subjects, but that's a lot harder of course.

Very good pairs.
I use a slide attachment on my tripod for pairs with my DSLR's and also I use a Stereo Realist 35mm.
A simple, cheap tool that makes outside work a lot simpler is one of those cubes of translucent yellow plastic with three levels inside. They simply slide into your external flash holder. Usually they are $10US or less on the bay
The Stereo Realist can be reconditioned by this fellow. He has been around for many years and the price is reasonable for what he does.

And I haven't yet found any clear explanation of the difference, so I really don't know how to evaluate said difference or even apply it. I only know that crosseyed viewing works best for me.

The parallel way is said to be more relaxing for the eyes I have been told.
How would that be done for live (= moving) subjects/objects? Mirror system? Two cameras/lenses?

Last time I did 3D was on film years ago. Pretty fun stuff.
Now I'm not sure why, maybe my eyes were switched at birth, but the only way for your pics to work is if I take it into PS and switch the left with the right and cross my eyes. Then it looks awesome. |

Indeed, that's because our brain is literally "averaging" the two pictures. Two ISO 1600 shots combined into one will show more detail too.

I'll be sure to add moar soon, as I'm captivated by this technique.
Some good stuff should be forthcoming rather soon...

Strange...
I tried it also, and saw the same 'Blocked' message.
It was not so when it was first posted here.
