The winter season seemed to come closer to an end as the snow faded from the ground slowly and the month of March began. I was happy to have the V1 to show people because seeing a 3D screen without glasses was in demand and not common. I felt that I had a decent position within the consumer world of 3D because it wasn’t popular yet and the fact that relatively affordable 3D televisions, 3D monitors and 3D Blu-Ray Discs have not been released yet. The only 3D monitor I was aware of was a Samsung monitor for the computer that Nvidia sold with their 3D Vision products. I believed Samsung had a larger 3D model but it seemed hard to get and absolutely no content to view with it. The 3D launch wasn’t too far away and I know prior to the forthcoming major holiday season that some of these items should be available at retailers. I could feel the 3D wave approaching but it was not here yet. I enjoyed the moments showing people the V1 and when a viewer figured out and understood how to achieve the viewing angle they thought that it was impressive. Very few people thought it was unnecessary but they really weren’t 3D advocates and at first had trouble getting the correct viewing position. The feeling of not needing glasses to see my pictures was great and I could have fun with friends and random viewers. I started thinking of different things I would like to shoot but I already took well over 30 gigs of pictures and the space was adding up. The post-production process with these pictures always seemed to take up a lot of time and I now truly realize the commitment that tags along with shooting and viewing 3D. I knew that the chance of getting more snow was at a very low probability and at least I have completed my initial task of capturing some decent shots of some snow scenery. I guess it was time to think about shots in the rain instead of the snow or even going to the beach seemed like a great idea. It was time to get more memory cards and anticipate a change in the coming weather conditions.
