Stereo pictures. I can't actually do this myself but for those who can, have fun.

As soon as you are be able to see 3 dimensions on flat pictures you'll be proud of yourself
1. Always try to keep your 2 eyes parallel to the bottom of the screen.
2. Close your right eye and look at the right pic with your left eye

3 Locate your finger between the face and the screen so the finger should block a tower close to the middle of the pic. So, your finger will be between the left eye and the right pic. (keep the right eye closed)
4 Close your left eye and look at the left pic with your right eye
5 The finger will block smth else, but move the finger to block the same tower (this time on the another pic).
6 Move the finger closer and further to the screen (and repeat the steps 2 -4 as many times as you'll need) to make sure the following:
- you don't need to move your finger any more when you look at the right pic with your left eye and when you look at the left pic with your right eye, and the same tower of the both pics is blocked.
7 Now don't move your finger and look at it with your both eyes.
Your eyes are in the correct position to see a stereo pic. (the finger is needed to make sure the required crossed eye is achieved)
Only one problem is left. You see your finger sharp, but the pic just behind the finger is not sharp yet. You have to see this pic sharp without moving your eyes.
Just spend time (repeat the steps again) and look at the pic behind the finger more and more - you will be rewarded - and you'll see the stereo pic sharp without the finger.

I can't cross my eyes

Great pictures though, kinda sad that the Russia Tower isn't U/C by now.

I'm curious, has construction stopped on the Federation Tower?
I keep coming across articles about the travails of the Mirax Group.

As in this article....see especially paragraph 3.

I don't know if this is on hold or if there is still some pitifully slow work going on. I will ask on SSC.

Considering that natural gas prices have fallen off a cliff I would have to say that the money for all these projects has likely dried up.
