I often see photos with this effect, and read description of applying different amounts of this effect, but I'm wondering how this is accomplished.

Is their a filter/tool in photoshop?

Thanks for the help.

It's funny, I was just trading emails with Darwin yesterday about this very topic. I was updating the Orton tutorial on my website and sent Darwin an idea for a different method. It's a bit self-serving I guess but have a look, http://www.rf-photography.ca/Tutorials.htm and click on the Orton Images link.

I should have mentioned, it's the last method dealing with double processing a RAW file.

Robert, I'd love to see your method, but
"Your search - http://www.rf-photography.ca/Tutorials.htm - did not match any documents."
Where did I go wrong (and get to www.tek.com)?

Rosemarie, I sent you an email, did you get it? When I copy and paste the URL into my browser address bar, it works fine.
