Nice effect, Shawn.Shawn Jennings October 08, 2006
Thank you all for your kind comments.Howie - I am using the same method that Steve mentions. I use gaussian blur anywhere from 10-25 pixels, depending on how much of a glowing effect I want on the image. I also apply the Orton effect last, before I flatten the image. Here is the link that I used for the effect. I received it from BP member Tammy Scott. http://www.naturephotographers.net/articles0106/dw0106-1.html
