Detritivores.

Tidying up a bit in my garden. Not too much, as I don't want to deprive these creatures of their habitat. I can put up with holes in plants, as slugs etc are a valuable food source for a number of species I find in my garden.

As usual red/cyan glasses to view in 3D.

Fuji W3 3D camera.
Flash, ISO 100
Cyclopital Macro attachment and Marumi DHG +3 achromat Macro lens
Processed with StereoPhotoMaker

I think any of these might have made an interesting subject in their own right, David, but here I think you are presenting us with too much and my eye keeps jumping from one subject to another. Kudos for getting them all in focus though.

David

I really need some glasses.

David
Pops ok but there seem to be some colour wierdies with the little round blobs They keep alternating white and red with me.
OK Otherwise- As David says - a bit too much to look at.
Cheers

Excellent 3D work David

It has good depth but as mentioned maybe a bit too busy. I am not having the problem that John is with the white blobs.

PS

Spent a couple of hours today making 3D images with one camera on a rail.


So watch this space for a first post

Thanks for the input folks. I forgot most blokes struggle with multitasking/viewing. ;-) Sorry John, as you know anaglyphs are not ideal. £7000 or thereabouts
will buy you one of these wef 12 Mar.

Great news Ian, looking forward to viewing.

On the 3D note I have asked admin if there is a poss . of having a 3d section or forum but they don.t seem keen. It would be good I think as only those with glasses would bother with it, and there seems to be a growing number.

Cheers

I must be going to the wrong branch of Spec Savers or may be I need stronger dose of pep pils.

All glassed up and looking good! I think that blade of grass in front of the woodlouse would have to go but apart from that I quite like this one David. Yes, there is a lot going on but the 3D effect gives the depth to make your eyes want to look around the picture. The way the three insects form a diagonal progression I also like.
As an aside can you still make adjustments like cloning etc on these 3D images?

John, Admin are probably right about not starting a separate forum at this stage, it would end up as a lbackwater frequented only by those who have the glasses, seldom visited by those who haven't. In a few years time when glassesless 3D and hologram viewing is the norm, then yes, a separate forum would be appropriate.
The world is awash with superb 2D images, there is only way to go IMHO. Embrace the Third Demension & Beyond :-)

Barry, perhaps a combination of the two? :-) ;-)

Thanks Robert you see it as I do. I left the blade of grass in because when viewed in 3D it gives a spacial link to the curled up slug, IMHO.
In the excellent StereoPhotoMaker, I convert the MPO file to Independent L/R files, which can be edited, if needed, in a program of choice.
I then combine them in SPM to create an anaglyph. There are a number of options in SPM which I have not yet explored until I get myself a 3D moniitor
and a new PC. Things are moving so fast in the 3D world it is hard for me to judge when to take the plunge.
Although anaglyphs are perceived as 'old' technology by some, I have a soft spot for them and is my preference for displaying 3D images on a 2D screen.

Good grief its a good job I have a strong stomach! I don't think its too busy and I am getting more used to these 3D images. Still prefer my flat, old fashioned 2D images for now though!

Nick.
