An ancient steep stone stairway that leads up to the sunlit world:

Ancient Stone Stairway 3D anaglyph conversion

A dungeon? A sewer? A tomb? Beats me. It was a stock photo by Polish photographer Michal Adamczyk, but that's all I know about it. I converted it to 3-D anaglyph with Photoshop using a depth map. There is a very cool atmosphere to it, don't you think?

I’m quite curious about this ‘depth map’ process. Probably defeats the purpose of being The site to find anaglyphs, but I’d be interested in a tutorial.

I would much rather be The site to find knowledge about anaglyphs than merely the site to find anaglyphs. This site really does need a good, comprehensive tutorial for depth map conversions. I’ll try to add one soon, maybe over the Labor Day weekend.

Hello again Sean I followed your example and converted steps of a staircase by myself: it’s in one of the towers of the “Sagrada Familia” in Barcelona.

Wow this is amazing! is there any way I can learn how to use these depth maps? I’d like to convert some photos from the past. Is a tutorial floating around the web? all the best, Felix
