3D Old Tin Mine

In Cornwall, England, there are dotted all over the county the derelict buildings of tin mines. Most stopped being worked a century ago -- like this one.

This is a crossed stereo pair. Sit about 2 or 3 feet from your monitor. The left eye looks at the right image and the right eye looks at the left image. Crossing your eyes thus is only minimal; do not strain or go bug-eyed. Relax. A central image should appear giving stereo depth.

If you have a tiltable monitor I think this looks better if slightly tilted away from you so the colours are made darker/saturated. I post this bright version because I know many prefer that luminosity.

300D, handheld sidestep cha-cha, polarising filter and processed in Stereo Photo Maker.

Awesome! Another 3D winner. That has some really nice depth to it. Good job Balliolman!

Your comments are much appreciated, John!

Hey, I am really looking forward to your next stereo.

Thanks for responding.

I truly wish I could be out there shooting.

The weather here is perfect, but my boss thinks I'm more useful here in my office. . . . . right.

WOW!! Great effect. I could almost look around the wall to see what was on the other side!

When you do get out to shoot, John, I bet your 'L' glass will produce some sharp stuff especially with your good eye for composition behind the viewfinder!

Strike! Welcome to the joy of stereo photography, Zeker! Thanks for your response.

You know exactly what to shoot for that kind of thing and that makes the shots even more amazing.
A very well done , AGAIN .

I much appreciate your plaudits, Dimitri, you are most kind!

Why not try stereo in your next shoot?

Wow, that one is really cool!

Jon.

Glad you like the effect, Jon! Type 3D into the search function and you will find other stereo postings by me. Thanks.

Another excellent shot there.

Where was this mine? I really must try the one I took at Dolcoath.

As you say, the engines houses are dotted all over the county. The one I use for my avatar is the Wolf Pumping House near Tintagel.

Absolutely incredible. I’ve tried to see the 3D on a few other shots before and wasn’t able. This one really popped. It took a while to unfocus and get back to reality. Thanks.

It is near Indian Queens, Mark. I look forward to seeing your Dolcoath stereo. Thanks!

Great, Randy, now that you have got the knack, why not look at my other stereos? Type 3D into the search function to find them. Thanks for responding.
