Ready for a journey into deep space? Then why not create your own universe by drawing it? Space and galaxies have always fascinated me and when I started painting some years ago I created several galaxies in the classical way — in 2D on canvas. A little later, I got the idea of converting my paintings into 3D. Finally, I switched from canvas to digital artwork.
The work being displayed in this gallery I call double exposure stereoscopic images. I start with a stereoscopic image in side by side “parallel view” format and process the images for the left and the right eye separately. I use an image editor to produce …
The centerpiece of these stereoviews is Iglesias, in the province of South Sardinia, Italy. It was founded in 1258, and its original name was Villa Ecclesiae.
I present you a series of modern stereo cards, inspired by the Victorian way of depicting reality: Stereoscopic photography. I’ve been inspired and fascinated by the atmosphere of old stereoscopic cards, which were, in their time, the most realistic way to immortalize and then relive the memories driven by the sight of a particular scene. I show you how to create your own modern stereo card in 10 minutes!
The village stereos portrays the charming historical center of the city of Tiradentes, in Minas Gerais, Brazil, one of my favorite places.
Michael Burr was one of the most prolific photographers of staged genre stereoviews in the Victorian era. Like most photographers Burr had his favourite models who make regular appearances in his tableaux. One of them, and perhaps the most relevant to readers of this article, appeared as the wife of a stereograph enthusiast who, while her husband is occupied in scrutinising the latest offerings from the travelling stereo salesman, takes the opportunity to flirt with the top-hatted purveyor of 3D delights.
Once becoming a diver in 2004, it was only a matter of time before I took my love of stereo photography beneath the waves. When diving, you are never sure exactly what you will find, but inevitably something wonderful appears before you. Don’t miss these stunning underwater 3D photos!
What to do in 2020, these difficult times for passionate collectors? Read about Thomas Asch’s newest acquisition, get some historical background information and look at the different kinds of stereoscopic Tissues.
Unlike painting, in sculpture, the perception of spatial depth may be the most important thing to consider. The relationship of each of the elements distributed in the space is the real challenge to take into account in creating sculpture. In the vast majority of cases, color is dispensed with to focus attention on three-dimensional shapes. In a traditional two-dimensional photograph of a sculpture that perception of depth is lost, and therefore two-dimensional photography is a very ineffective means to represent the spatial awareness of a sculpture.
A 3D photograph usually consists of two images of the same subject taken from different viewpoints. One of the most common questions amongst both experienced and new stereo photographers is how to determine the right distance between the left and right camera positions that should be used when taking the photos. Learn how to achieve the right depth in your photos for a satisfying viewing experience.
The father of the stereoscopy, Charles Wheatstone, used geometric pictures to demonstrate his thesis about the “physiology of binocular vision”. Artificial Intelligence could be a new way to create stereoscopic worlds.
Look at the incredible variety of stairways and their dynamic expression increased through stereoscopy.
