Orcombe Point in Devon

Part of my Bruce Percy inspired project, captured on my old GFX 50R and 100-20-mm lens

Seems like the "Orton Effect" could be useful for that project:

Interestingly I read this article and gave it a try in post with a gaussian blur layer. I wasn't sure about the result, but will play about with it s bit more

Good luck!

There's a lot of possible variations:

Upper layer: how much blur, how opaque, what type of blending, contrast, brightness, what kind of blur and even wavelet processing instead of blurring.

lower layer: as-is, sharpened, contrast-by-detail-levels (RawTherapee).

additional layers, masks ...

For example:

Original:

Median blur:

Wavelets:

Thanks, I think in this particular instance, as this is already soft due to fog I don't think Mr Orton works here, but I absolutely will try this on other images
