Where does this "rule of thumb" come from? Your eyes don't get farther 
apart when looking at distant objects, they stay the same distance apart 
and rotate to be closer to parallel. And the distance of the separation 
should be fairly close to what it would be if you were standing in the 
scene, or the scale won't look right.
