This my first product of Orton experiment, take it for what it is, I know it is a modest result but as with all photo manipulations you need a lot of trials and errors. Does anyone remember when in the "dark room" we were playing with "solarizations" or silhouette as it is called now?
Comments and critique are very welcome because they will not stop me to try this again. And Again. Eventually I will improve. :clap
I hope.

Thank you Sherstone for the idea.

    Love the subject! For me the greens are a bit to saturated. I would try reducing the green saturation a bit and maybe dropping the exposure a bit as well.

    I agree with ChandlerJA - love the idea but too neon. GP

    I agree with the others - a little too saturated. You have achieved a different effect from some of the other postings - a bit more like a drawing. I like it.

    I've noticed that "Ortonish" tends to be a bit over-saturated. I used to use that option in Picnik and it was always overly colorful. Most of the time I tuned it down, but once in a while there was some room to let it go. With so much green in this one, you might want to tone it down a bit.
