Thanks Sandy! The easiest method is the "cha-cha" method where you simply learn to make a small
side step to take a second shot and then work that then into a stereo image. Recommended tool is the free
Stereo Maker http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/stphmkr/ which offers lots of functions, including auto alignment
and stereo window correction. First results can be had with very little effort actually once the basic principle
is understood. [That macro stuff I show here is a bit different though, I would not start with that, but rather
wide angle or normal angle shots]

I used to make stereo slides in Paris last century. One day maybe I'll dig them out Smile

I realised all I was trying to do was parallel viewing and not crossed eye... so for the last 10 to 15 minutes or so I stared at these flowers Smile I'm a little dizzy right now but I managed to see them and it's getting easier. Klaus, the orchids are simply amazing!
