Way Cool Beatriz, I want to try the Orton effect. What version of Photoshop do you have? I just have PS2.Beatriz Boillat September 18, 2011
Hi Sandi,Beatriz Boillat September 18, 2011
Hi Sandi,Look what I learned today. Is in photoshop.
Make a copy of your image.
Change your new layer to a black and white image.
(remember to use a levels adjustment on your image after you have removed the color)
Now change the blend mode on your black and white layer to soft light.
Let me know if you like it.

Beatriz,I do not know how to do layers in PS, but would love to learn how. About the only thing I know how to do in PS is make adjustments to the pictures.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
