“The Orton Effect: Digital Photography Tip of the Week” is an article from the PCIN.net Blog that describes how to apply The Orton Effect to your digital photos. Photos with The Orton Effect have a “beautiful, impressionistic image”, according to PCIN. The image is somewhat blurred, and their colors seem almost unreal.

In the past, The Orton Effect was accomplished on film by combining two photographs of different exposures. Now, as PCIN shows us, The Orton Effect can be accomplished in just a few minutes with any photo editing software. The photo of headstones that you see above is from the PCIN article, and demonstrates the Orton Effect nicely.
