I learned something new : resharpen after Orton. Great tip. Plus I really like your color grading, Nick. Nice clean background, subtle lighting on you.
wow, youtube algorithm is strong. I just reacted to Fototripper's joke about your Orton effect being down from 92% to 87% of your photos, and this video is straight in my suggestion's list :)
Thanks Johnny. Yeah it was very kind for Tom to give a shoutout like that! I can always tell when he mentions me in a video, because i get a huge influx of new comments! Thanks for coming over.
Nick Page you're welcome. I've been a subscriber for a while now. I attended Tom's seminar in Manassas a couple of weeks ago. Maybe some day I'll meet you too. You're both inspirations.
I use the Orton Effect in my landscape photos a lot. Using Affinity I usually duplicate the pixel layer twice adding Gaussian/multiply blend mode to one and a screen blend to the other, then balance both opacities to get the desired effect. There's also a way to do it in Affinity without duplicating the pixel layers. Add a brightness and contrast adjustment and change blend mode to screen without adjusting the sliders, then add Gaussian blur Live filter with multiply blend mode. Pretty much the same, but computationally less expensive
Hi Nick, love your work and jealous of your beard, any-hoo, I found out that the tools menu on the left side of the screen in Photoshop can be setup for different types of editing. How can I optimize the tools I can use for photo editing? I currently am using Windows 10 on a laptop, but one day I planning on moving over to an I-mac.
Not familiar with the Orton effect yet, so I was wondering if it was always something done globally to an image or ever done to only selective areas of your image? Too much unnecessary work doing the orton effect to parts of your image? Look odd when you do it some places and not others? Thanks as always for the great videos, Nick! Happy to admit that your channel was the first UA-cam channel I ever broke down and actually hit the subscribe button. -- Aaron (Odys)
I have a question about how you do the sharpening after adding the blur. I have just tried to do this on a few photos of my own, and I have so far just used a brush to erase some of the blur in a few main things in the photos. Is there another way to do this? I'm new to the editing in LR and PS, so it might sounds like a stupid question... 😄
Too funny. I was watching Thomas Heatons latest video (editting a burned forest in Finland) and thought....How was that effect called they use on the Palouse pics...Forgot it....And what is the next video that automatically comes up when Heatons video was finished....Right....This one. Haha!
Right....but I guess he has not linked my brain in someway too. So it is still coincidental that I thought about it and it popped up, isn't it...Nice effect, will try to use it. The pallouse reminds me a bit of Toscane where this effect could be used very well too I think.
hi, if you are interested in doing it in camera or atleast doing most of it on camera, hear this interview with Michael Orton, the farther of the effect. the effect is a bit more 3Dish i wanted to give credit to Michael Orton who is credited with creating it. here is the podcast I first heard it on... www.photography.ca/blog/2009/06/03/67-orton-imagery-the-orton-effect-interview-with-michael-orton-and-darwin-wiggett/
This isn't what I want to achieve. I want people to see what I can see. The least need for processing the better. The presentation however was really good.m
Interesting video! Usually I don't like post production videos as a film photographer because I like simplicity and purity in my edits, but this is really tasteful. I might use this at some point.
Frame by Frame Traditionally speaking though film photographers have a tendency to edit their photos less, partly because it is (largely) a more casual group, and partly because film requires less post pro (maybe color correction and scratches) than digital does. Not being a snob either. By purity I mean getting it right the first time; not adding on things that weren't present originally in the shot.
Matthew Coon Unless you're working as a photojournalist for an employer requiring unembellished reality, photography is an ART. There is no right or wrong or pure or impure, etc. It's whatever pleases the artist's eye. There is no "required" amount of processing, only the amount needed for the artist to accomplish their vision. And there is less editing in film because of the limitations of film, not because it's superior in any way. Film doesn't require less editing, it just can't hold up to editing, being roughly equal to only a 4 MP digital image. And yes, you come off as a snob. Digital photographers "get it right" in camera, too. We just have to process our images ourselves (and that's a good thing). And I have news for you, what you shot with your film camera isn't what you get back from the developer. In the same way a digital camera edits jpegs in camera (applying sharpening, contrast, saturation, etc.), so do the labs that developed everyone's film and make prints. Rarely does any medium capture your mind's eye or even the reality of what you actually saw. You come off as jealous that digital can do so much more than film so you make up straw men to nit pick digital about. "Well film requires less post processing than digital does...not adding things that weren't present originally." Lol, what? Who are you to tell me what's right or wrong with my art? You may not like it, but that's subjective, not objective, and it doesn't make it wrong.

You should check out my more recent video about the orton effect... this is a super old video
Nick Page thanks, just did, and am even more inspired... Do you have a tutorial on using Lumenzia?
@@antonydavid2953 not really on youtube, but my premium tutorials on my website utilize Lumenzia heavily.
wow, youtube algorithm is strong. I just reacted to Fototripper's joke about your Orton effect being down from 92% to 87% of your photos, and this video is straight in my suggestion's list :)
Flexable same here 👽😂😂😂😂😂
do u have the link of this video ? i cant find it
Excellent and useful technique. Thank you Nick.
Glamour Glow also gives Orton Effect in Nik Colour efex Pro 4.
And so does the Classical soft focus.
Thanks for sharing the lesson Nick.
Thanks for sharing, I love this effect.
Awesome, thank you !.. Thumbed and subscribed.
Heaton recently discussed and demoed the Orton effect, but he also pointed to your video for a more detailed tutorial. Well done, both of you.
Thanks Johnny. Yeah it was very kind for Tom to give a shoutout like that! I can always tell when he mentions me in a video, because i get a huge influx of new comments! Thanks for coming over.

I've just watch 2 of your tutorials, and they are great! Not too long and very useful. You've got a new subscriber. Thanks!
Thanks for the tip on the NIK effects...was looking but not sure which were safe.
very cool! first time on your channel, I'll be watching.
Looking forward to trying this, thanks!
Looks great! Thanks
Thanks a ton for this! Super helpful!
Nice tut!
Looks nice! Thanks
It would seem that the "Glamour Glow" effect in Nik is similar to this as well.
It does. It is all I use now and to great effect.
Dude, I absolutely love the color grading on your video!
Thank you sir for sharing! This method is very similar to mine, I just prefer to tweak it with curves.
Awesome instruction!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much! You just got a new subscribe :)

Great!
Thank you, Nick!
What do you think about the Orton effect on cityscapes?
It certainly has its place it makes all of the lights glow in a cityscape
I live in CDA, Steptoe is awesome!
Is there a reason why you take it back into LR to sharpen instead of just doing it in PS?
Hey Nick, starting from scratch. Lumenzia or TK? Love your vids.
TK!

Add an Unsharp mask or high pass layer to add sharpening
Is the orton effect similar to split-toning?
Is it possible to achieve the same effect solely in LR?

Thomas linked to this video through the suggestions, that might be why it came up :)
Right....but I guess he has not linked my brain in someway too. So it is still coincidental that I thought about it and it popped up, isn't it...Nice effect, will try to use it. The pallouse reminds me a bit of Toscane where this effect could be used very well too I think.
no not at all, you're totally right and thats really cool! Did not want to lower that coincidence
You could fine tune this effect using blend If
hi, if you are interested in doing it in camera or atleast doing most of it on camera, hear this interview with Michael Orton, the farther of the effect. the effect is a bit more 3Dish
i wanted to give credit to Michael Orton who is credited with creating it. here is the podcast I first heard it on... www.photography.ca/blog/2009/06/03/67-orton-imagery-the-orton-effect-interview-with-michael-orton-and-darwin-wiggett/
Thank you.
Thank you so much... :)
I didnt understand what location it is. Where is it ? Thanks
It is an agricultural region known as the Palouse in eastern Washington state and western Idaho between Spokane and Lewiston.
The sandwiched film version produces nicer results in my opinion.
Blur then sharpen effect vs orton
Nice video, thanks for sharing but ....
LR Sharpening is terrible, sharpen it in PS or a good third party sharpener.
Agreed, and I do... #oldvideo

Pretty sure you don't have to be a film photographer to enjoy simplicity and 'purity'
Frame by Frame Traditionally speaking though film photographers have a tendency to edit their photos less, partly because it is (largely) a more casual group, and partly because film requires less post pro (maybe color correction and scratches) than digital does.

Nice tutorial, but clipping all the time seeing you, is annoying.
