3D Photography Glossary
A bit about me; I have an extensive background in photography and 16 years in 3D photography. During that time I have written dozens of manuals, including 5 books on how to make outstanding, contest winning 3D images. I truly believe you will be thrilled with what you learn from my books. Teaching photography, particularly 3D photography, is a passion for me and I have devoted countless hours to working with those who wish to learn the subject.
What others say:
“Thank you very much for this tutorial. While I “knew” some of it, your procedure makes thing[s] a whole lot clearer, ordered, and will probably end up making my alignments a lot better and “pain” free.”
Chuck Isdale
You are offering new stereographers a wonderful helping hand. I have just read your first chapter and it is a clear explanation.”
Peter Blyth
I want to thank you for your excellent tutorials on alignment using SPM . . . Your tutorial makes it possible to harness the wonderful tools it provides . . . I am anxious to learn more and you are an excellent teacher. I feel now that I can make my images do exactly what I want. Thanks again for this excellent tutorial.”
Dale Smith
I'm back. I found your Digital 3D Stereo Guide so well written and so informative I had to come back for more.”
Best regards, Barry

You will learn the exact steps required to get you up to speed fast. The information here is presented in a cut-to-the-chase, no bull, right-to-the-point manner. I describe things clearly, concisely and without any formulas or obscure diagrams. Techno-speak is not spoken here.
Just to be clear, you will be using a computer to "convert" the pictures you take into 3D images that you and your friends can enjoy. The software you need is free and simple to operate, but it is a necessary part of the process. If you'll trust me, read on and I think you will see that it’s pretty easy.
Plus, I have another book, more advanced, that I think is so important for you to read, I intend to give it to you for free. As another bonus, you will have access to many tips, secrets, and more on my website.
Let’s go make some amazing3D’s!
