Default Queen guitarist launches 3D book

Queen rocker Brian May unveils 3D book
By Robin Millard (AFP) – 2 days ago

HINTON WALDRIST, England — Brian May, the Queen guitarist and expert astronomer, has ventured into another dimension, bringing the idyllic world of 1850s rural England back to life in vivid colour 3D.

The 62-year-old rock star's childhood fascination with three-dimensional pictures set him on a lifetime's quest to find an unknown village captured by the equally mysterious Victorian photographer T. R. Williams.

While penning global hits like "We Will Rock You", "The Show Must Go On" and "Flash", Freddie Mercury's band mate was also on a mission to rescue Williams' stereo images of joyful country life, which leap out at the viewer in 3D.

The guitar wizard tracked down the tiny Oxfordshire village of Hinton Waldrist, deep in the southern English countryside, and scoured the world for the 59 images which give a unique glimpse into rustic life 150 years ago.

That is quite cool! I never thought a rocker like May could have some interesting interests!

You know May is right, 3D is amazing. Why do people take pictures in mono when 3D is simply startling?
