Oh, what is an Orton technique?

Mary Stebbins Taitt said...

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.

Hi Mary!
Beautiful flowers. A bonus for me since I
just popped in to tell you that I used one of your offered beauties at my own blog today as well as at Moody Monday. Here's the link:
