I came across a book from the 1990s of stereograms -- those weird patterns where if you crossed (or diverged) your eyes you would eventually see a solid three-dimensional image. Or not: some people could never manage it. But it made me think I might make something similar with APhoto layers. Here's a couple of fairly successful efforts. I created a pattern layer based on a rectangle of a particular width with images clipped inside, then another layer on top with a wider rectangle. A fair bit of trial and error was involved too! To view the effect, look at the image from a comfortable distance, then cross your eyes until two humbugs or dolls overlap. With a little practice, you'll find the details suddenly come into focus and you'll see three layers at different depths. (In fairness, I must admit that a few people never get the hang of it, so if it doesn't work for you, it's no fault of your own. But try again in an hour or tow, or a day or two: sometimes it's easier than others.)

Wow As I was aligning these images perfectly in Affinity Photo, It still looked out of alignment, soon I discovered that it was an Optical Illusion, these images are actually perfectly aligned both vertical & horizontal. Cool, I even took a longer look & sure enough it's an optical illusion of uneven spaces. (Top left & right corner) (Bottom left & right corner) The 2 vertical images are actually the same size & The 2 horozontal images are actually the same size.
