I had coffee with Mark today at Lygon St and he dropped back to the house on his way home. We were talking about photoshop and the Orton effect, and I thought I'd have another go. I've tried it in the past, but you really need the right sort of photo. This time, I think I might have it...
The photo is a few years old, and is of a white helebore flower growing in the garden at Chez Thorn. It has the correct dreamy glow without an overall blur - pale colours on dark backgrounds seem to do well.
I'm pretty happy with this. A bit too romantic and cliched to want to use too often, but for the right photo it looks pretty damn fine.

lovely - there's another one of roses against the ivy that might work well too
