I decided to make 3D postcards, but stick to regular post card dimensions. As it was a sunny day I decided to go around central London and photograph some of the landmarks. I went round:
- Houses of Parliament
- Buckingham Palace
- Hyde Park
- Trafalgar Square
- Oxford Street
- Camden Locks
However when I got to Hyde park my camera ran out of battery and I had to go back home pretty disgruntled. I tried again the next day with a full battery and took some better shots anyway.
I took photographs at different distances to the landmarks so I could layer them and then one from the left angle and one from the right angle for the closest layer.
I kept the furthest picture intact and cut out the closer layers so you could see some of the background behind them. And then I just used a consertina so that they could be flattened or in 3D.
My favourite is the Camden one, as I managed to catch a couple of rockers sat on the bridge and one of them glared at me; I like how it shows what Camden's like without using the place but the people, who are a staple of it anyway.
Here's how it looks in my portfolio:
