  This image composition was shot in one of the new Mythic maps called "Orbital" in the videogame Halo 3. It can be viewed in 3D by crossing your eyes so the two images overlap. Easy right? Some may beg to differ. This type of imagery is called stereoscopic imaging which is not really anything new. It's accomplished by having two different angles of the same image, essentially recreating the points of view of the left and right eyes. Stereoscopic image capturing is usually done with two cameras, but if you're anything like me, only one is used, which isn't necessarily impossible. Take a picture, move the camera, take another picture. The only issue with that is the time delay; the subject could move between shots, thus ruining the 3D-ness of the image. That's when I discovered the awesomeness of the Theater mode in my favorite game, Halo 3. In this Theater mode, I can stop time and freely navigate the virtual worlds, capturing intense battles, explosions, landscapes, etc. at different angles. After positioning the screenshots in the correct way in Photoshop, all there's left to do is cross your eyes. All in its wonderful, crisp, glorious three-dimensional splendor. Click on any one of the images to see the stereoscopic image. To see the 3D, cross your eyes so the right and left pictures overlap. Click the image again to go back to gallery.
