Rocks and Ripples

I pray you give me some slack here.. This is my first try at the Orton Effect. I think I will have to study up on how much to lighten and what saturation works best.. I see your other works in Orton Effect and I shake my head.. So much talent.. We all have to keep learning.. I will study more later.. No time as yet.. Thanks and don’t feel bad about sending me advice via bubblemail.. LOL..

P.S. this was captured near the park where the Headstones of our fallen were captured. Oh and I might say the Red Tailed Hawk who was so kind to share his space with me..

    what’s ‘the Orton Effect’?

    lovely shot chuck … love the stonework and how the light plays on the water and the rocks (big smile)

  • velveteagle replied

    It’s like blending two images.. One very sharp .. One very soft.. Both overexposed and I have to go read up on it.. There are many ways it shows off better than others.. Thanks for stopping in..
