The photographer Michael Orton developed an inventive landscape technique in the 1980s using slide film, but it has become a popular digital effect as well, and it’s easy to create inside Photoshop Elements.

    Rick, thank you for the great job on this tutorial. I had started working on an image when I noticed your tutorial on the home page of the website. I had read it before, but thought this image was ready for a test drive with Orton. I wasn’t disappointed. I followed your directions and it came out great.
    Wish I could attach it to show you.
