 One of the many useable pieces of "art" at my place of work. I'm not sure how old this device is. but I found examples online of stereoscopic cards from the middle 1800s. Based on the images from these cards, I suspect they are from the 1920s - 1940s.

This is just laying on an old wooden table, so I didn't have to move it, just position everything the way I wanted. All of the lighting for this is coming through a nearby window (on a partly cloudy day which diffused the light a bit.

A pun on 3D pictures. I like the sepia overtones to the obvious old pics. With a smaller aperture you can get the double photos in focus as well.

Oh wow. Haven't seen one of these in a while. Great artifact. Might have been even better in b/w.

I live the subject, tones and lighting. Also the depth of field, but I think a slightly different angle on the viewer would have made it stronger. I would like to see the shot with a slightly lower perspective and a little more to the left to include the whole viewer in the frame.

Overall I do like it. 7
