While I was at Kinglake for the photoshoot a couple of weeks ago, I deliberately had in mind that I wanted to take some 3D photography. I wanted to be able to present the photos of the destruction of the bushfires in a way that would have more impact, more reality, and put the viewer more into the scene and really feel like you were there. Stereophotography is a great way to do this.
What follows is a selection of 3D stereo images taken around Kinglake using the “cha-cha” method. If you are unfamiliar with the technique to see 3D images of this kind, then please read this tutorial first, before returning here. If you would like to learn how to take 3D photos yourself, then you can learn how with this tutorial.

I can see 3D almost instantly as I have had a lot of experience. When installing nVidia display drivers the background is a whole lot of nvidia logos, you sort of stare in to the distance while waiting and all of a sudden the whole thing turns 3D. As well as that I have 3D vision on my PC about $1000.00 to set it up with a 120 hZ refresh rate monitor and the 3D nVidia glasses. Works absolutely perfect with most games. I saw Avatar in 3D yesterday and that was superb but I think my 3D on my PC is better.

I should point out that my last post was about 3D… I acknowledge the devastation of the feb 09 fires and they were horrible to say the least. Under no way would I try and undermine the totally horrific events of that day. I cried as did any feeling Victorian at the images and videos that were unfolding. Kudos to the CFA and other authorities. The Black Saturday Royal commission while being necessary in my view was a bit of a witch hunt. 1. Yes it was helpfull in that measures and controls can be put in place to help avoid such a situation in the future. 2. All involved did their utmost and I heartily congratulate them all. I for one would never voluntarily to go into a wild storm like that (I,m a chicken) so those who did deserve a medal and much more. Thank you guys and please accept my deepest condolences to those who lost homes and loved ones.
