This was a PS developed mist as an experiment. Not much mist in my neck of the woods
Canon 40D, lens 70-200mm f/4 set at f/11, 1/80 with +1 exposure bias
I responded earlier but for some reason (cockpit error most likely) it didn't post. I didn't use the effect you reference, but I muddled through on my own. Probably couldn't reproduce the steps. Thanks for the tip.
Bill if you google Orton Effect you will be able to download that action for approx. $3.00 instead of going thru all those steps. I like the feel of this shot and the subject matter!
