Homage to Edgerton (3D - Cross-View)
A reproduction of Harold Edgerton's famous milk drop.
To view this this stereo photo in 3D:
1. Cross your eyes slowly until you see three images;
2. Then focus on the middle image and you will begin to see it in the third dimension. Stereo viewing requires practice; if you cannot see it within a few minutes, come back to this image at a later time and do try again. -Also try viewing the pictures at different distances from your monitor, or with difference size images.
I took this picture on Velvia slide film in 1993 using a Medium Format Macro 3D camera that was built by the English stereo expert, David Burder.

Beautiful splash crown. I am fan of the two techniques: Splash and 3D. Congratulations!

This is great! Do you recall what your shutter speed was, and is the stereo camera like the macro realist?

I used a sound trigger with the camera in the dark and shutter open. The microphone was attached under the red plastic. - I amplified the sound of the drop through a speaker and moved the triggering microphone further or closer to the speaker to control the timing. The camera (which I borrowed) was a converted Medium Format SLR. There were two waterhouse stop type diaphragms inside a single lens. - Small mirrors or prisms inside the camera in a periscope arrangement were used to spread the images so that they did not overlap. - The waterhouse stops could be changed with a dial to yield different stereo bases inside the single lens.
