A Week Of Stereo Vision










 To celebrate my 70th birthday (October 17), I'm going to indulge in a week of nothing but 3-D image making starting on Monday, October 23. Mostly using my Apple iPhone 12, but also using my 1950's Coronet Stereo camera as well. This time around I will be using the instruments for 'Street Photography', bit of a challenge, but let's see what gives in this seven day experiment.

Check back soon for results.

Since my interest in stereo was aroused, I have often thought about combining my love of street work with this genre, and I have decided to have a go, using two film cameras and my phone apps, so tomorrow, (Thursday), I will be out and about with two other photographers, seeing what I can capture.

Over the Winter, I am going to devise a set-up with two of my Nikon F90 bodies, to make a 'Twin Rig', I have already purchased a tripod mount for the cameras, and the pinhole lenses I will make myself, using body caps, and lids from Marmite jars.
