3D glasses

This website contains images produced from stereo photo pairs that were manipulated into anaglyphs (3-D images). You will need red-and-cyan stereo viewing glasses to get the 3-D visual effects. Photgraphy on this website was taken in the summer 2005 and after an early spring snowfall in 2007.
