Shooting from far, far away in a low-light forest does not make for ideal conditions for capturing tack-sharp birds. I used the Orton effect on this little bluebird to give an overall, dreamy look to the final image.
I love using this technique on my already soft images...love how it brings out the blue even more, I am so glad you didn't miss this shot because even a little soft it turned out fantastic!
Is that effect from Elements or something else? I really like the look, no one would know if wasn't perefect. It has an early in the morning feel to it. Very nice.
That bird is a beautiful blue! I'm not familiar with the Orton effect but I love the look it gave your photo. I'd also like to know more. I have PSE and really don't know how to use too much there.
