Enhancing Your Photographs with the Orton Effect
This is an update to a video I did about a year ago. Using Lightroom and Photoshop, you can apply the Orton effect to enhance the contrast color and lighting in your photograph and give it a pleasing glowing ethereal effect.

I was told that you should flatten pictures before you save. What is your opinion on that

I don't usually do that. It kind of messes up my layers if I wanted to come back and change something later. The best thing to do is to make a stamped layer. That is just like flattening the photograph but instead it creates a new "flattened" layer. So it leaves all the layers alone and makes a new layer that contains all the changes/additions you did in the other layers. Thing is though....there is no menu item to do that. You have to do it with a shortcut key command. That shortcut is Cmd-Option-Shift-E (or Ctrl-Alt_Shift -E if you are doing this on a PC). The only other option for flattening layers is to save space and save faster with a smaller file. That is not a good option in my book.
