By far and away THE best tutorial on how to use the Orton Effect I've ever seen. Very comprehensive but also easy to follow. Many thanks for this exceptional guide !
Glad it was helpful! I was just reviewing this video last night. Thinking about updating it but after reviewing it I couldn’t think of anything I would change. Thanks for confirming my thoughts.
Glad you enjoyed the video. I use this effect on a lot of my photos. Quite effective once you learn the technique. Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment.
Glad you think so! I try to keep it at a level so the new Lightroom user can understand as well as the advanced user. Usually just going a bit slower really helps. Let me know if I get streaming along too fast!?
Just came across to your videos and really like it. Very detailed explanations. Great work. Making notes as i watch your videos. Learning a lot from you. Thank you🙏 all the best.
This was at Foster falls. You hike down to the falls and this scene is on the left hand side of the bridge which crosses in front of the falls. Good luck!
No I think you can do it in LR. I haven't really tried. But I would think apply the right mask, make adjustments with clarity/texture/dehaze. Maybe using an intersection with luminosity you might get close to the effect.
@@easternshorephotoinstruction Yes, this technique can be accomplished in Photoshop. And you can do so much more with the image. This is a nice tutorial, however, I thought your audio sounded a little odd, nonetheless, it was understandable.
No, this should be a pretty standard operation (Clipping layer) in Photoshop. You need to hold down the option key (or alt key if using a PC) and hover over the lower right corner of the layer you are clipping. That should give you that icon for clipping. When the icon pops up, just click. It can be very finicking sometimes so you might have to play with where you are hovering. BUT...if that just doesn't work, you use the menus to do the same action. Click on the layer you just made..that you want to clip to the lower layer. Go to the menu bar and choose LAYER > CHOOSE CLIPPING MASK. Once selecting that menu item, it will perform the clipping. Let me know if you have any other problems. I will be glad to help out.
@@easternshorephotoinstruction Thanks for the advice. I found this Clipping Mask function but I guess it's rarely used. I don't understand what it does but need to practice more with these levels and masks

Awesome! I’m going to try this effect on my garden images. Thanks.
Go for it! I love this effect on garden and woodland scenes. Adds great atmosphere. Thanks for the comments!
Excellent tutorial mate.....thanks for uploading it.
You bet. Glad I could help out.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful technique. You explain very well even I understand. I have to learn more from you and then try it myself.

great vid many thanks for your time, look forward to more vids....
Glad I could help out! Working on more videos for the future.
Thank you for the clear and concise process! I'm trying to learn Photoshop and this is one of the best instructional videos I've seen!
Great! Onwards and upwards with Photoshop, ?!
Very well explained, many thanks...look forward to following your instructions...
Great! I am trying to get one up a week. Stay tuned.
Been using PS for a couple of years! This was SO GOOD!! Thanks!
Glad it helped! I know...I am starting to spend 90% in Lightroom and only 10% (if that) in PS. LR has improved leaps and bounds.

Glad you like them! So glad I could help you out.
Great explanation Thank you. 👍👏👏
Glad it was helpful!
Great content ! Just curious where did you take that picture in TN ?
This was at Foster falls. You hike down to the falls and this scene is on the left hand side of the bridge which crosses in front of the falls. Good luck!
I wonder if this can be done using only PS. Thanks in advance.

@@easternshorephotoinstruction Ok, thank you, I will try that. I don't have LR.

Is that merging of layers at the 5 minute mark some special thing because it doesn't happen in my Photoshop. I can't find it in any tutorials either
