stereo cards
Mar. 29th, 2018 07:45 pmI finally got all the stereo cards scanned and swapped (so they're viewable by the naked eye) and posted online. There are nine here, but all 57 of them are posted in this album in Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/14542870@N03/albums/72157664615361018 Captions and sometimes lengthy text from the cards can be found on the pages at Flickr.
These are scans of stereoscopic image cards. The kind that are used in the old-fashioned stereoscope viewers. I've reversed the images from side to side, so that you can see them without the viewer.
Cross your eyes until the two images completely overlap in the center. While keeping the images fused, let your eyes focus on the image, so that the details become sharp. If you can do this, you will be able to see this scene in three dimensions.
If you're having trouble, relax your eyes, so the two blurry images float around lazily. Eventually, they'll overlap - try to hold them there. Then wait until the overlapping images pop into focus.
Here are some of my favorites:
Lauterbrunnen Valley and the Lovely Fall of the Staubbach, Switzerland
Naerodal Pass, Norway
