Stereograms were a popular way to view photos in the past, and interest has increased again over the last few years. You can easily create your own 3-D stereograms using basic photography. You can choose to photograph anything that is interesting to you, including landscapes or even people.
Instructions
1. Select the person, object or view you would like to capture as a 3-D image.
2. Find or create a stable, flat surface where you will place the camera. Draw a straight line on the surface, 3 inches in length.
3. Place the camera vertically at the left end of the line and take the picture. The camera needs to be oriented vertically, or placed on its side, to keep the photographs narrow enough for the effect to work. Slide the camera to the right end of the line and take a second picture.
4. Print the photos. You will need the images to measure 3 inches wide by 5 inches tall.
5. Tape the two images together down the middle. Make sure to keep the right view on the right and the left on the left.
