What is an anaglyph? Anaglyphic stereograms (anaglyphs) are stereo pairs of images in which each image is shown using a different color. The two images are overlapped and then viewed using red/cyan or red/blue glasses (depending on the colors used). This means that the color channel is used for the stereo separation and therefore the perception of anaglyphs is monochrome

The word anaglyph comes from the Greek anagluphos, meaning "wrought in low relief"; this comes from the word anagluphein, which means "to carve in relief" (ana = up + gluphein = to carve)

The discovery of anaglyphic 3D came in 1850s as the result of experiments by the Frenchmen Joseph D’Almeida and Louis Du Hauron. In 1858 D’Almeida projected 3D magic lantern slide shows in which color separation took place using red and blue filters, and the audience wore red and blue glasses

The Empire State Building is cemented in New York history. Built during the Depression, the building was the center of a competition between Walter Chrysler (Chrysler Corp) and John Jakob Raskob ( General Motors) to see who could build the tallest building. Construction began on 17 March 1930 the steel frame rose at an average rate of four and a half floors per week. To speed construction, the building's posts, beams, and window frames were made in factories and put together on the site. 60,000 tons of steel was brought in from the steel mills in Pennsylvania 310 miles away, by train, barges and trucks

  • In 1945 an Army Air Corps B-25 twin-engine bomber plane crashed into the 79th floor of the building in dense fog.
  • From 1931 the building acted as an "Ambassador to New York" to many famous people have visited such as, Fidel Castro, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Prince Andrew, The Duchess of York, Nikita Khrushchev & King of Siam
  • The building's dirigible mast (now the base of the TV tower) was originally designed as a mooring mast for Air blimps. Unfortunately because of  the volatile wind conditions at 1,350 feet, the idea was ultimately abandoned

Instructions for creating 3D anaglyph photos. To view these photos you need to wear 3D glasses with two different-colored lenses. You can get FREE 3D glasses from Rainbow Symphony by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope.  For anaglyph viewing you have a choice of either Red/Cyan glasses or Red/Blue glasses

3D Glasses - Stereo Glasses The red and blue lenses filter the two projected images allowing only one image to enter each eye



In order to see things in 3D each eye must see a slightly different picture. This is done in the real world by your eyes being spaced apart so each eye has its own slightly different view. The brain then puts the two pictures together to form one 3D image that has depth to it
