3D light bulb- Mara and Stephen

We created this picture by taking two photos of the same object but both in a different position.  The first image was take on the left side and the second picture was taken on the right side.  They were almost identicle pictures which helps make the 3D more realistic.  Next we opened both pictures in Adobe photoshop and set them both to greyscale.  We left the image on the left on greyscale and the image on the right was switched to RGB scale.  Then to the image on the right we set it to have a red channel which allowed only red light to pass through.  We then set the left image on top of the right and set both images to a RGB channel. Finally, we alligned the photos to match eachother and we could tell through the 3D glasses that our photo was now in 3D.  Color filters work by absorbing a certain amount of red, green, or blue light of the color spectrum.  In order to see the image in 3D you need to have 3D glasses or a sheet of see through red platic and blue plastic and place the red one in front of one of your eyes and the blue in front of the other eye.
