Influence's

One of the areas that interested me most with stereoscopy was the Victorian era.

Victorians paid to see the world differently and to enjoy the spectator ship the experience between real and optical. The stereoscope was mainly used for pleasure and was seen as a parlour room travelling experience. 

What interested me the most was the relationship between the optical devices and the visual imagination.

 

Victorian Stereoscope

With this in mind my intention was to show my images of the places I have visited using different perspective's.

I took a series of images from Formby.  My aim was to experiment with the different places, light and viewpoints.

This image of a Christmas tree works quite well because the viewpoint I took it from allows the end of the tree to appear as if its poking out at you.

I like these images and feel they work well in 3D. My aim now is to use what Images I will take in New York using different perspective's and creating optical experience that will stir the visual imagination.
