Dreamy Path


In my company photography DL, it was the first time I heard of Orton effect - it was an effect I had seen in lot many pics, but did not know how it was achieved. As I read more about it on the net, it was definitely something quite tricky in film age, but considering today's digital photography it is just a matter of minutes of post processing.
This picture was on way to Hoh rain forest in Olympic national park - around mid-Oct and mid of fall season. It was quite sometime that our team of photo enthusiasts spent on this stretch to capture the fall magic.

I used GIMP (open source). Just search on Orton effect technique for digital pics - it uses layers which is available in GIMP.
For moving to previous post - edit the "href" link by overwriting the existing picture link to the previous post link.
