6:24 One thing I would add, instead of merging layers together, you can create a folder to put your layers in. You then can change folder's opacity or apply a mask, but you still have the abilty to adjust the layers within the folder.

I've wondered how people get this affect for ages, so glad I happened to come across this great tutorial. Thanks man!

The Ortan Effect works sooo well with neon lights and night shots 😍

WOW!!! Spectacular!!! Now I understand better!!! Thank you so much for sharing it!!!

For those who wonders, Command + option + shift + E = Ctrl + Alt + shift + E on pc

Is there a way to do it without command? what's the option for it from edit menu?

Haven't found it very helpful because of mac only commands.

Yeah that was amazing! I’ll try it in my next images looks dope!!! Thank you so much man! ✌🏼✌🏼 keep it up!

Very informative, I really like the end results! Thanks for sharing! :D

So that's how you do it! Always thought that soft look you've got to your style was negative clarity. Great tutorial man!

I've been looking for this for years, thanks a lot 🙏

Love you job.❤

Amazing effect!!!

What a tutorial. Love it man.

I had a feeling you had done this before - and I was right. One of your first videos was on this same topic but I think this video explained it really well and how it affects the image. Nice going Roman 👊

Wow Thanks so much! I’ve seen this on photos but didn’t know what it was called or how to search it. I gotta try this right tomorrow morning!

Excellent Tutorial!

The last couple of years the blurred layers technique has been 'out of favor'. I used it quite a bit years back, mostly with some of my fine art still life images. Somehow my prints looked too literal, too sharp. Using just a bit of a blurred, partially transparent layer gave the just the right bit of 'glow' and softened back that extreme sharpness. Yesterday I was printing a fall orchard scene with leaves turning yellow and brown. I decided to give the technique a try again and was very pleased with the look. It's subtle, leaving transparency at about 20% but it definitely adds something. Sometimes we want sharpness in an image and sometimes we need a different emotional effect.

thank you so much for this awesome skill!

super helpful video! thanks

Perfectly explained, got yourself a subscriber!

Thank you for the tutorial. Stay safe.

Fantastic, your a breath of fresh air good solid advice, with the reasons, very good! DG New Forest U.K.

Good info, thanks

i didn't know there was something like Pixelmator thanks!

Ledge. Also been wondering about that dreamy aesthetic , but not many people as open on how they get there, as you are. Thanks

Another great wee video Roman, but I really need to get into PS more. Still in the early days with me, guess I should use these times better huh, lol. Thanks again, keep well.

Just dope.

thank you.

Help a lot thx

Haha my guy, you the best. Thanks for the mobile app plug.

Very interesting to use it for that kind of photos.

In my humble opinion, people also overdo it with landscape photos. We all want to make our photos look interesting, if you have something which is very interesting to start out with (as with your examples) you don't need to do much to make them good or better, where as if you start with a not so great photo, then you also tend to poor on effects (Photoshop/LR) to try to make it more interesting ... it very seldom works. I am of those who don't have many interesting photos, but I at least know that I'm not very lucky.

For people wanting this in video, the 'Glow' effect in Davinci Resolve effectively does the same thing!

I love you so much

Very cool technique! How about using blend if for the light sources? So is gonna create the halos around bright areas only

Grazie.

Luminar 4 has a "built in" Orton effect filter (actually a couple of variations of it). You don't have quite as much control as full PS but using L4 as a plugin I make a duplicate layer in PS, and roundtrip to Luminar and back - then the image file has an "Orton layer" which can have the opacity, blend etc fiddled with.

How does it compare to Luminar Ai orton effect? I absolutely hate Photoshop because it too time consuming and complicated(can't get my head around with layers, command shortcuts etc). I don't edit much my photos. Normally I start with DXO Photolab 5 then I finish rest in Lightroom or Luminar AI.

I worked it out : ) First I use Dxo photolab5 and adjust it there. Afterwards I export it as dng and then open it in Luminar AI for final touches. In Luminar Ai there is a orton effect soft adjustment which can be applied globally or using brush to selected parts. Much faster and more intuitive for me then Photoshop.

Interesting, I usually do this with a slightly different blending mode, but pretty much for the same effect haha :D

Thanks

is there a better way to do this in 2023? Any Photoshop actions. / Lightroom tools?

Tbh, you can archieve it by using Tiffen Black Pro Mist filter

I personally use Field Blur because it comes with bokeh options and render lights better.

Of all the Orton effect tutorials this is the only one that makes sense, the others I have seen do not do the right thing to have a quality result.

Hi.That app is only on iphone?

Pixelmator not available for Android. Apple only.

Some software have this as an adjustable filer, i.e. Luminar 4, AI, etc.
