Testing the Orton Effect

[sparkie1263]

I just wanted to see how this would work. I selected the part of the image I wanted to save then inverted it and then applied the Orton effect. This is what I got. I need to find the right image and I think it might look good.

I used this plug in. It leaves a water mark on the trial but you can crop it out. Here is the link. http://www.mediachance.com/plugins/redynamix.html There are lots of different effects you can add. Something else to play with.

Looks good. I think I have too busy of a background. I will try it on another image later.

Hey, I'm liking this experimental aspect to the forum. Way to go, dudes!

Nice to see some folks can step away from traditional efforts, but at the same time, do not lose sight of doing it in the "correct" way.

Personally, I revel in turning out a terrific piece of work ... with just the camera. No fancy add-ons ... just a well-timed, well-exposed, well-framed item of interest. Gosh, one day it will happen.

While I am waiting I guess I will keep playing around. It may be a long wait.

While your learning and trying new things frank keep those wildlife and wetlands shots comming, I like to look at them, and it gives me ideas on how to 'see' shots.
