does this look 3d to you?

Marke
You have some beautiful shots of Zoomer 😀
I also had a dog who got the bone cancer. Unfortunately it was in his front leg and he was a 140lb Rottie (Gus). Gus was only 6 YO. He did not make it. I hope that Zoomer has a happy and mobile life. It seems he has a caring pair of humans to keep him busy.

Cheers

f16sunshine: Thanks for your kind words. Zoomer has certainly become a favorite subject of mine since his "new life". I'm very sorry to hear about your Rottie, Gus. I imagine it must be more difficult with such a heavier breed. I know another greyhound owner on this forum (bob338, I believe) that experienced bone cancer with more than one of his dogs, and he has mentioned that he feels greys probably come back from an ampuation easier than many breeds, because of their athletic nature and their lightness relative to their size.

My brother got a new Rottie this past year, after having German Shepherds for many years. He got the boy, "Neo" from a great breeder and this dog has an incredibly joyful personality.

Double Negative: Those are GREAT examples of pictures with a 3D appearance.

One thing I think many of us get wrapped up in is always thinking that a 3D effect comes from selective focus, when side-lighting that offers good texture rendition is just as important, and maybe even more so.
 
here's a kitty picture on flickr that pops without using shallow dof, just lighting and angle of view.

The first time I ever used my Crown Graphic and 4x5 this photo seemed to make me feel like I could walk into it ... I'd never had that sensation with a pic before.

I think the thing with back alley's photo is the scale. There's no indicator in the image.
It could be a small scale model or a theater set-up.
I think the bench "floats" a little too.

Yep … but … that pic doesn’t conform to the accepted Bokeh dogma, put that on flickr and you won’t get a line of folk cooing about it

I think this current trend to assert that only by harsh contrast and very narrow DOF can a sense of space be created in a photo is clearly twaddle, it’s far more than that.
 
Hi Joe

To me, it does look 3d. After reading a few posted replies, I tend to agree with the feelings expressed by Stewart and Jamie. In my eyes, it does have that sort of pictorial quality to it.......I like it also.

So, no Joe, I don't think your eyes are playing tricks on you 😀

Regards,
...Adrian
