Photography -- Digital techniques Depth Charge: Digital Anaglyphs From the Digital Studio 
 Each image in this exhibit "is a pairing of a Keystone Mast photograph, taken with a stereographic camera decades ago, and a new image. ... Both images are shown in 'anaglyphic' format -- meaning that if seen with inexpensive 'three-D' glasses ... they give the illusion of a three-dimensional image. In this form, images seem to possess depth." Includes introductory essay. From the California Museum of Photography, University of California, Riverside. http://www.cmp.ucr.edu/exhibitions/depthcharge/ Topics: Photograph Collections, Photography Last updated Sep 20, 2006 Digital Photography Review
