Take my hand II

by Aqua » Fri Sep 18, 2009 8:29 pm

This 3D image/effect is interesting on a number of levels. Tool curiosity aside and the amazing reflections visor wise, I noticed that while wearing my red/blue glasses if I move horizontally back and forth 6" or so, about 18" from my monitor, the foreground objects move correspondingly. That is to say, the astronauts left arm and belt level tool bundle can be made to move 'up and down' with my monitor's beam orientation? Or is that an artifact of the red/blue cross imaging?
