My time has come!

The above stereographic image is for cross-eyed viewing (most stereograms are wall-eyed, so you may need to put your finger in front of your screen until this one comes into focus)

This is an image of Honolulu, Hawaii, published by NASA. Note Diamond Head (the volcanic crater) in the south.

Here are some other stereopairs published by JPL:


Wheeler Ridge, California


Mount Saint Helens


Salt Lake Valley, Utah


Wellington, New Zealand

    Also can’t do parallel, only cross view. I only have to use effort for the first few seconds, as soon as the two images are aligned, my focus snaps to it and I can relax and keep the focus without having to think about it.

    It does cause some mild strain if I’m doing it for too long (like going through a book of these), but if I’m cross-eyed for a just a couple of minutes its no problem.

      Huh. For me I can very easily wall-eye, I just let my focus drift. Going cross-eyed requires serious and constant strain, and doing the trick with my finger in front of the screen doesn’t work – I can get the dots aligned but if I try to focus on the screen or move my finger I lose it instantly.
