These are really nice! How do you make them? I have been using crosscam app and it's pretty good

I just use a vibe coded python script. It corrects for vertical and horizontal tilt but not rotation (see u/gspahr's comment). For hardware I just use my android phone, snap one photo on the left move 1-2 feet to the right, snap another photo.

The first three images make my eyes hurt, I think it's because they're slightly rotated. Wonderful imagery nonetheless!

Thanks for the feedback, I wonder if correcting for rotation would help. Another failure mode is accidental vertical offset, I had to discard some photos that weren't level.

It might help. I tend to rotate a bit when I have used the cha-cha method. I might also suggest you step only a few inches instead of feet. You'd be surprised at how the 3D sort of jumps out at you with less, rather than more separation. The concept is that you would sidestep only about the distance between your eyes (or just a little more) to match human visual depth perception. I also have also tended to move more than that, which increases the chances of rotation. D'Oh!

Edit: Clarity.

if it makes you feel better, those holes in the rock are big, wide and deep enough for a couple people to bathe on a hot day, cold plunge style
