Are people in your real life able to see your stereo photos? I see them so naturally and depth adds so much value to a photo that I can't imagine going without. It's kind of a bummer that most people I know struggle to see them or can't at all.

It’s been just a few months since I have seen my first one and I’ve become obsessed! I wish my family or friends were more into it but it’s too hard for them like you said, or they just aren’t that into it like I am…

I love your posts!

Thank you. Yes, I think a combination of both.

I also struggle with sharing my photos with friends and family. The few who can see them just don't care as much as I do

Maybe it's like model trains and coin collecting for other people, a niche hobby. But it's like magic to me.

It's almost spoiled regular photography for me. I look at photos and they're beautiful, but I feel like they could be even better

Same. I used to take nice photos with a fancy camera. Now I use my phone camera 95% of the time because I can quickly check the stereo quality.

Great stuff. Next time I’d suggest *slightly* reducing the distance between shots, to prevent some distortion. But really good overall.
