over-under

>From the convention came one of those over-under viewers that is a
pair of periscopes (one for each eye) which allow one to view two
photographs as one.

I quickly learned that the photographs must, at least, be similar
in order to avoid a great deal of confusion on the part of the person
viewing.

Eager to put the new device to use, I set out to make some
photographs of my own to view.

I constructed a carefully made bracket to hold two cameras.  I
measured carefully to ensure the lenses were properly aligned,
one directly above the other.  The cameras also were triggered
in synch.

When I got the pictures back and arranged them for viewing, I
could not produce for myself the 3-D effect I had sought.

Can some of the old-time listmembers help me here?

Should I be using red-blue glasses when I take the pictures?

Should I shift my weight while viewing?

Do I have the top picture on the bottom?

Thanks,

(maybe I got the medication reversed too...)
