  1. Oh, what is an Orton technique?

  2. It is a photogrpoahic technique that used to be done sandwiching slides and now can be done digitally. You sandwich together a sharp image with an out of-focus-image of the identical scene which gives a warming haloing effect. I added a touch of difference blending to this, so it's not a straight Orton.
