Wooden Foot Bridge
I saw this bridge yesterday but the light was just horrible...I went back today and it was much better so I decided to try some "Orton" work on it...(where does Orton get its name?)

Just curious as to your opinions....

Thanks
Darren

Named after Michael Orton. See this article: http://www.naturephotographers.net/articles0106/dw0106-1.html by Darwin Wiggett.

I like the comp and the effect.

That's cool, Darren. So I take it you've merged two images with different focus, or is there a special process for digital images?

Tom, Check out Neds orton image, Rick explains it there....

My wife came in and looked at this and said, " That's going on a wall somewhere"

Not too shabby, Darren!

VERY nicely done! Both the image and the technique.
