Yow, good point! I'm surprise none of us realized this before : ) You need to change the direction of the light 6 degrees as well.
Try using this sequence to create your stereo pair: set light=[-0.348,-0.348,-0.870] ray png image1.png turn y,6 set light=[-0.437,-0.348,-0.902] ray png image2.png turn y,-6 Cheers, Warren -- mailto:war...@delanoscientific.com Warren L.

Now that I am looking into a crevice, I have discovered a problem with this simple method. When the view is rotated, the light vector moves with the view. This results in the two pictures having different shadows, thus ruining the stereo picture. I don't want to give up on having shadows. Has anybody solved this problem? I am attempting to solve the problem by specifying the light setting (set light = [-0.4, -0.4, -1.0]). What are the definitions of the light parameters?
