A stereoview consists of a pair of nearly identical images that appear three-dimensional when viewed through a stereoscope, because each eye sees a slightly different image. This illusion of depth can also be recreated with animated GIFs like the ones here, which were created from Flickr images posted by Okinawa Soba (http://www.flickr.com/photos/24443965@N08/sets/72157604144707515/). Follow the links under each animation for the original stereoviews and background information.
