This blog has been inactive for a long time, but that doesn't mean that Utah 3D is down! 

Come on over to http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/utah3d/ to join our mailing list.

We meet every other month, Mapleton Utah.

Love to see you and your pictures.

12/16/08 -- Christmas Get-Together

We will be attending the 5.55 pm showing of the animated 3D movie Bolt. The show lasts an hour and 36 minutes. But of course there will be previews. The Cinemark University Mall theater is brand new and is located at 1010 South 800 East Orem.

To drive there just get off the interstate at the University Parkway exit and go east. Cross State Street in Orem, and at the next light turn left or north on 800 East in Orem. The theater is a half a block on the left, or west.

Tickets can be purchased on line at https://www.cinemark.com the cost is $8.75 on line, or 7.75 at the theater. You may have to wait a week or two to buy them on line. After the show we will gather at Carrabbas Italian Grill at 683 East University Parkway, and talk of the production. It is at the south side of the Mall and you will pass it on the left it as you drive to the Theater.

PLEASE let me know if you plan to attend! There are currently at least 19 3D movies planned for showing in 2009, so this will be a big year for major motion pictures in stereo. And there are a lot more in production and planned.

11/18/08: ISU Code Show

Stereo Pictures from Around the World

From the International Stereoscopic Union, Code 2 Folio

Our club is a member of the International Stereoscopic Union and is participating for the first time in this group of pictures. Other clubs, with 10 pictures, each are:

Australia – Sydney – Sydney Stereo Camera Club

Australia – Melbourne – Victorian 3D Society

Austria – PHGW

Denmark – Stereoskopklubben

New Zealand – Stereoscopic Society of New Zealand

Poland – Polish Stereo Club

Switzerland – Swiss Society for Stereoscopy

The Netherlands – NVVS

United Kingdom – The Stereoscopic Society

USA – California – Stereo Club of Southern California

USA - DC – Potomac Society of Stereo Photographers

USA – Idaho – Boise Camera Club

USA – Michigan – Detroit Stereographic Society

USA – Minnesota – Minnesota Stereo Photography Club

USA – Oregon – Cascade Stereo Club

USA – Utah – Utah Stereoscopic Society

We are asked to judge these pictures (except for our own). We will be showing the group through first, only mentioning the titles. Then we will go through them again for the judging.

As I have belonged to stereo groups in the past I have often thought of pictures I would like to take, as I see what others have done. My own knowledge about composition has improved as I have seen some of the remarkable pictures from other photographers.

I believe you will enjoy this intimate look at what stereo photographers from around the country and the world feel are pictures worth showing.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
