Stereograms

A fantastic set of 3-D Stereogram macros at Flickr.

From the site:

These can be viewed as is by slightly de-focusing your eyes and then cross them until an image appears in the middle and then relax your eyes to get a stable 3-D image. It's worth the trouble! But don't overdo it if you have difficulty- try again later.(headache warning)



I used to have several posters like these on my living room wall. My pop used to come over and stare at them, trying his darndest to see the effect. It was so funny when he finally got them to "come together".

"You darn near have to cross your eyes!" he exclaimed.

That's very near the case, but it's more like the instructions say to do: defocus your eyes. After dad figured out what to do, I bought him a large magazine with quite a few more stereograms.

Give it a try! There are 1200 to choose from!
