I have tried Michael Orton’s Effect on many photos and found it usually give a nice soothing feel to the photo. It also works very nicely on Portraits. You judge and please give me your feedback.
In Elements: Open your image, Ctrl J, Ctrl J, Change Blend to SCREEN, Ctrl E, Ctrl J, give the top layer a significant Gaussian Blur, Change Blend to MULTIPLY, Ctrl E, CtrlE. Save with new name
That’s it – you have your Orton Effect

Bill,
I copied out your instructions for the Orton Effect. I’m going to give it a try. I’ll post my results so you can see how I do.
Thanks for sharing–TMeredithN
I can’t wait to see your results!
And, I think your fountain shot would look great Ortonized…
