Unless I'm mistaken, it looks like there might be some parallax between the
separate color layer images (difficult to be sure with such small images
with such different gray shadings). That would support a
multiple-lens-camera theory. Incidently, that might also explain the color
banding in the river image too.. and why he used the then-obvious
three-lens-projector for viewing them.
Could others better versed than I am take a look and tell if it looks like
the images were all taken with a fairly long lens? It looks that way to me,
and if so, then I wouldn't be at all suprised if the projector lens and film
registration mechanism _was_ the camera -- simply replace the projector
light source with a light-tight cover, and a shuttering mechanism (or, if
the exposure are long enough, a black cloth, or lens caps, or somesuch) and
viola.. one nifty three-lens camera.
