I looked at the two photos as a stereogram--focus through the plane instead of crossing your eyes.
If they were identical, there would be no 3d effect. My eyes can't figure out how to resolve the foreground waves, because the photographers were too far apart, but the spray wraps around the lighthouse as you would expect.
- elijahparker 9y agoThis is a great effect! The resulting image is quite stereoscopic (in an exaggerated way) and you can see the stone structure as clearly in front of the lighthouse as well
- cecilpl2 9y agoAs a side note, it is possible to train yourself to stereogram your eyes at will (I've done it). This makes "spot the difference" puzzles a triviality. Which is, in itself a triviality, but an entertaining one.
- logfromblammo 9y agoThe carpet in my office frequently fools my eyes into the wrong focus. I have been tempted to use a marker to leave a secret message in it for my successor, but that seems like more work than my actual job.

I also recently discovered you can make plain-text stereograms: O O O O O O O O O O O O O I'm sure I'm not the first but I was still amused.
