Superb yet again Brian.

Love the 'ripple' on the top of #2, and for this reason will pick it as my favourite.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone :)

Lance you view the stereogram by looking at it cross-eyed. One way to do this is to hold a finger about 4" from your nose in front of the pic pair and focus on that- you should notice that a third picture appears behind your finger between the other two pics. Slowly remove your finger whilst keeping the third picture in view- that will be in glorious 3-D. Takes a bit of practice but the effect is worth it.

eyes about 18"" to 24" away - it's easiest to try a small one first then try with the larger one if you can get that right. The other way is just to look at the screen and go cross-eyed you should then see three images, try to focus on the image in the middle and relax your eyes. Your eyes/brain should then lock onto the 3-D pic. The brain likes 3-D images so once you have done it once it much easier after.

Fabulous shots as always. I like the sort of ripple effect at the top of the drop in #2, not sure if thats what it is or just the way the reflection is coming through at the top.

All gorgeous shots.

Thanks Linda :)
The ripple effect is what I call their hats- It does seem to be a genuine ripple on the drop where the drop attaches to the leaf.
