The Orton technique produces a dreamy soft focus effect that can make a
relatively uninteresting photo take on a much more striking appearance.
The Orton Effect comes from a technique first used by Michael Orton in
which one "normal" photograph or slide was sandwiched with another out
of focus and overexposed photograph or slide.
The Orton Technique is also very useful in "saving" images that wound up accidentally out of focus.
Images of children, landscapes, and "cute" animals work especially well for this treatment.
Duplicate the image as the top layer, apply "Gausian Blur" and add the brightness to this layer. Merging this new layer with the original image with "multiply" and adjust the opacity of the original image to 60-70%.
