January Image - 3D Ganesh         

How I did it :

This is my first trial to make a 3D image using a 2D camera. I took 2 photographs by moving about 3 inches. The first photo was taken with Autofocus. This was changed to manual immediately after the first shot. Keeping all setting similar, the camera was moved about 3 inches to the right side. The  left & right images were loaded to the "stphmkr" software and auto alignment was done after vertical and horizontal corrections. Red/cyan anaglyph was created. The corrected left and right images were also saved. Using the photoshop, the left & right images were placed side by side as two layers. Flattened the image and trimmed.  (Thanks to all contributors of PSA Journal May 2011 issue).

Ernie Zimmerman A very interesting technique to produce a 3D effect.  Your description was very informative and clever to have the 3 D glasses in a PSA Journal.  A very good teaching session. And the 3D image worked!

Sally Grugan This is very interesting; I admire your skills and patience to produce this colorful image.  Good job!
Kathleen L. Sims Sorry I do not have 3-D glasses to view your image for comment.
Bogdan Bricelj I don't have anyexperience with 3D images, so I can't judge good or not. On the photo itself disturbs me the yellow flower in front of the face.


Member Bio
Dr. Mohanan Nair - Biography

I belong to Trivandrum, Kerala state ("God's Own Country"), the southern part of India. Did my post-graduation from Kerala University and Doctorate from Kurukshetra University. Currently I am working as a scientist at the National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology, Thiruvanathapuram, Kerala after a long service of 21 years at Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow, India. Photography, travel and listening to music are my hobbies.

Even though I was attracted towards photography from childhood, I purchased my first camera, an Agfa-Isolly-II (120mm fixed focus) from my first salary in 1980. After 13 years, in 1993 I got a professional camera Pentax K1000. Two more digital cameras were added to my small collection subsequently. The interest in photography as an art started after my visit to XXIII All India Salon of Photography by the Lucknow Camera Club. I joined this club to learn more about photography and started participating in local as well as national salons. I took PSA membership in 2003. I do not have much dark room experience as my photographs are developed and printed at professional studios. Digital images are processed by self using Photoshop (Ver. 6 & CS). I consider my self as a student of photography as well as Photoshop and look forward to learning these from other experienced members of PSA.
