I agree, awesome photo, well done.
Thanks Jamie

Thanks, Crushy. The bad side of the Orton Effect is that, once you use it, it's difficult to not always use it.

I tried it like I said I would on a few photos I took last week, and you're right. I'm going back through my entire catalog finding photos that really benefit from it. Thanks very much for posting this.

Given how many are saying this is 'awesome' perhps someone might consider nominating it in the PoTM thread.

So I'm thinking the orten effect is some kind of radial blur, saturation boost and vignetting based on the darker elements of the image?

Tried the technique tonight in combo with something else. Badly need to get my head around layers and masks to pull it off - ditched it, start again another day...

I know the feeling very well. That photo (above) is from last year, but until I learned of the Orton Effect I couldn't get it to look as nice as I wanted, so it sat there waiting. Make sure you post yours here so we can see
