Thiksey gonpa, ladakh

view large size.
thiksey monastery is the largest such structure in central ladakh. located on a hill slope, its building are arranged in an ascending order of importance and are well spaced, from the foot of the hill housing the dwelling units to the top of the hill enshrining the monasteries and potang (official residence) of the chief lama. the architecture of the monastery strongly resembles the potala palace in lhasa, tibet, the former official seat of the dalai lamas. thus, thikse monastery is also known as ‘mini potala’. there is statue of the tibetan protective deity at the entrance at the lowest level. the highest level of the complex has a stupa (chorten).

to enjoy this stereo (3d) image, first just go through any one of the image like a normal photo. when you are ready to see in 3d …

- concentrate on the centre line of 2 images for about half a minute
- when your eyes get little tired, try to focus your vision as if you are lost in deep thoughts, keeping the direction of vision towards the centre line
- a 3rd image will appear, pushing aside those two (if not yet, try to force your pupil nearer to each other by looking at the bridge of your nose, cockeye)
- adjust your vision to see only 3 images (not four)
- concentrate on the 3rd middle image, the stereo one.

hope you could see the 3rd image and enjoy.
