3D Photos: Old Japanese Stereoviews by T. Enami

This is a rendering of some old Japanese stereoviews by master photographer T.Enami. The original photos were taken by T.Enami between 1890 and 1907.

You can view the individual animated 3D photos here:

------------------------------------------
This video was created automatically using the Start 3D (http://www.start3d.com) slideshow feature and then screen capturing the rendering. The Start 3D software converts each stereo photo into a gentle animation and then does a gradual depth reveal followed by a background blurr to highlight the 3D in the photo.

It's easy to create your own animated sideshows like this. Just take some stereo photos (you can use a normal camera and take two photos of the same scene from slightly different angles) and then upload them to Start 3D. Start 3D does the rest!
