By shooting this cliff in hyperstereo, I have emphasized the deep crevices in the rocks. When we stand in front of this cliff and look at it with our own eyes, we are unable to see the deep depth of the cracks and crevices. But using the hyperstereo technique, these attributes of the cliff become obvious in this 3D image.
