In Digest 281 Mark Dottle writes, in part:
<< ... Make a
print of the left image normally. Now flip the negative backwards and
print the right image. ( not upside down, but flip the emulsion side
over). Place the images side by side like a holmes style pair. >>
Makes sense so far, but I have a problem here:
<< Turn the
mirror on edge, mirrored side to your left, and place the edge of the
mirror against your nose. The mirror becomes the septum. The right eye
looks directly at the right image, while the left eye looks into the
mirror observing the left print reflection. >>
In reading this, and please correct me if I'm missing something, it appears
that
these directions have you looking at the correctly printed image in reverse,
and
the backwards-printed image directly. Is that correct? Wouldn't that give
you a
bizzare view (I hesitate to use the phrase "mirror image") with everything
reversed?
It seems more logical to turn the mirror around and look at the reflection of
the
right print (which has been printed backwards).
