3D Photography
Swirsky is known for his work in 3D digital photography. He has developed algorithms for generating full-color anaglyph images from stereo pairs that can be viewed through red/cyan glasses. A popular freeware program, Callipygian 3D is widely used and has been featured on TechTV's The Screen Savers show several times, with Swirsky demonstrating its use. The popularity of anaglyph images from Mars, and in anaglyph movies like Spy Kids 3D introduced new people to the anaglyph technique. Swirsky's software played a major role in letting people create their own anaglyph images.

Famous quotes containing the word photography:
“Too many photographers try too hard. They try to lift photography into the realm of Art, because they have an inferiority complex about their Craft. You and I would see more interesting photography if they would stop worrying, and instead, apply horse-sense to the problem of recording the look and feel of their own era.”
—Jessie Tarbox Beals (1870–1942)
