When I first heard about chromostereopsis and got a pair of
"ChromoDepth" glasses (from Wendy's comic book giveaway), I went through
my photo album of underwater shots.  The stereo effect was pretty
interesting.  Some photos looked great, some looked pseudo and some
looked downright bizarre.  Of particular interest were the orange vests
worn by divers with blue wetsuits.  Parts of their bodies were in the
foreground while other parts were in the background.

Still, most of the photos looked pretty good.

Regards,
Ron
