[photo-3d] Suitable subjects for 3d....

[Rory Hinnen <Rory.Hinnen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, all.

I was reading "The World of 3d" the other day, and I came across a
paragraph that I thought somewhat controversial under "Choosing the
Subject".

"Moving objects are an other matter that should be avoided in a stereo
photo, because viewing a well-presented stereo photo gives you a feeling
of seeing reality, and it is a pity if this feeling is disturbed.
Subjects attractive in a photographic sense, like waterfalls and
peacefully waving water surfaces, but also moving people and animals are
not suitable stereo subjects. People with little stereo experience prove
this with remarks like: 'That water looks like ice', 'Madams Tussaud's'
and so on."

Okay, I haven't been involved so long (less than a year at this point),
and frankly have seen very little of other peoples work, but I find that
water, fountains and moving people are fascinating (I have one of my
better pictures that includes all three "unsuitable subjects").

Comments?
