More 3D Photography

Here is a more common type of 3D photography known as anaglyph photography. Here, the left and right eye view of an object are photographed or printed through different coloured filters, so that when the image is viewed through glasses with a red filter covering the left eye and a cyan (blue-green) filter covering the right eye, each eye sees only one of the two images, and the object is seen in 3D. If you still have the 3D glasses used for seeing the "Spy Kids" movie, they will be perfect for viewing these images. If you have the 3D glasses from the "Night of the Living Dead 3D" movie, you will have to turn them around and wear them backwards so that the red filter is in front of the left eye.

Anaglyph images can even be made from stereoviews by using free software such as Anaglyph Maker.

The following photos were originally stereoviews taken of the stuffed animals in the Redpath Museum of McGill University in Montreal.
