The Pond in Winter ( Orton Effect)

Copyright © 2011 Deborah M. Zajac. All Rights Reserved.

While driving around the park to go somewhere on the other side we passed this pond and I thought it was lovely, but didn’t ask Dali to stop, but the 2nd time around it I did. There were 3 ducks swimming in icy pond just out of view on the right side, and it was gently snowing. One duck was quacking I thought happily. It echoed through the valley sounding very much like the Penguin in the Batman movie and it made me laugh.

    1. Thank you so much Todd! I really thought this one could use it. It looked rather flat with my usual post processing techniques. Flat winter scenes are a bit more challenging.
      The good thing is it has got me to think outside the “box” and take another look at B&W processing, and this technique. 🙂
