    OK.I guess I'll go first.

    This is a work in progress. All of the depth is created in the depth map image.

    Now I will add floating objects to populate the scene.

    Very nice Gary, although something about the water coming out of the spout isn't looking right to me.

    In a perfect world, Xara could take two mirrored images, and create a blend between the two. But it can't so I had to shift the fill in each of the jets to achieve the depth, otherwise the jets appear to be going in and not out. But it's not a perfect solution.

    Very nicely done. I can see this one quite well. The fountains turned out really good.

    Beautiful stereogram Gary, I like the water and the transparency, excellent details.

    I'm still experimenting with stereograms, need to do some more work with this one to get the central spider clearer to see. Plus I've got problems with ghost artifacts around the legs. But learning as I go.

    Apologies to Larry in advance, for the creepy subject.

    Regards

    Su

    Gary I think your final has got to be my favorite of all you have done. It's crystal clear and very good depth.
    Su, nice job on yours too. I love those droplets and thankfully the main spider is very hard to see (at least for me).

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
