Baywood Scenes [anaglyphs]
[NOTE: CROSS/CONVERGENT STEREO PAIRED versions of the following ANAGLYPH stereo pairs are featured in the next post.]
For best results, view these anaglyph images under greatly subdued lighting with red/cyan-tinted 3-D anaglyph glasses. For a FREE sample pair:
Send self-addressed first-class stamped envelope with note stating:
"Please mail one sample pair of red/cyan anaglyph glasses to afford viewing 3-D views on www.Abes3dworld.blogspot.com. Thank You!' to:
Your free sample pair of glasses should arrive within a week of being received by Rainbow Symphony.
ATTENTION 3-D purists:
You may opt to view CROSS/CONVERGENT-viewing versions of these anaglyph pairs in the very next post. Cross/convergent-viewing stereo pair versions are presented in true color. While ANAGLYPH versions of stereo views seen via red/cyan glasses are ideal and relatively easy for individuals new to stereo images presented online or in print, stereo pairs viewed by the naked eye via the cross-convergent viewing technique---as explained at the head of the next post---are a superior viewing experience.
Glasses-free autostereoscopic screens, electronic shutter glasses technologies, and 3-D books featuring stereo pairs viewed with a built-in pair of binocular enlarging lenses provide true-color viewing. However, to please the majority of visitors to Abe's 3-D World, anaglyph and cross-viewing stereo pairs are the featured formats.
Remember: click on images to enlarge.

Baywood Scenes [cross-viewing]
[NOTE: red/cyan ANAGLYPH versions of the following CROSS-VIEWING stereo pairs are featured in the previous post.]
Here's how to view CROSS/CONVERGENT stereo pairs in 3-D without glasses:
1) Click on images to enlarge.
2) View stereo pairs straight on and from a distance of about 2-feet from your screen.
3) Cross or converge your eyes a bit until you see three virtual images. [NOTE: If you don't cross or converge your eyes enough, you will likely see only the original two images. If you cross or converge your eyes too much, you may see four images.]
4) With all three images in your line of sight, hold focus on all three while gazing upon the center of the three images. It will suddenly appear fully three-dimensional.
If at first you don't succeed, be patient and try again. The dimensional rewards are well worth the effort.

Point Buchon Trail - [ANAGLYPHS]
<--- click on image to enlarge
Point Buchon Trail, just south of Montana de Oro State Park, itself just south of Los Osos, California.
© Abe Perlstein
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I had the good fortune to explore Point Buchon Trail the fourth day after the official opening seven days prior. The trail itself is a one to one-a-half-mile loop. It's relatively flat and easy walking (not including the dip down from the parking lot to and away from Coon Creek on the way to the security entrance).
Spectacular scenic vistas and a wide diversity of flora and fauna are in abundance. Must sees: 1) a gigantic sink hole open to the ocean below; 2) sea caves along the expanse of beach by outlet of Coon Creek (Try to get to this spot in late afternoon when the light is good and the tide is low. Walking into the caves is both extremely dangerous if not impossible during any time but low tide.); and 3) the cove just before you reach Point Buchon itself (marked by a pole with weather instruments on top) where a thriving kelp forest, beautiful off-shore rock formations, and sea otters frolicking in the gentle waves are likely to be observed.
The majority of Point Buchon Trail is situated on PG&E land adjacent to the Diablo Nuclear Power Plant some miles to the south (not visible from the trail). To enter the trail, you must divulge your full identification to security guards at the checkpoint just up the hill from the Coon Creek Bridge. Parking is in a dirt lot at the end of the road that winds through Montana de Oro State Park, just south of Los Osos, California. There are restrooms there and at the security entrance. There is no water along the trail.
Point Buchon Trail is open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 8:00AM to 5:00PM only. Everyone is instructed to return to the security area by 4:45PM.
