I'm unsure of the Orton... personally I prefer the untouched one

"3 layer Orton effect"
I quite like the Orton effect with "gritty" portraits though...

very nice progression.
three gets me! my brain keeps try to say potato, even though I know it's not.
love the composition.
Don't know how you managed to restrain yourself...I always give in and try to make pears and peppers look like bums.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

It was sort of inspired by a picture we have at home by my printer, Robert Burns - poet of a photographic sort, he does amazing things using plate cameras and antique processes and often uses polaroid negatives. For many years most of Paris Match and Italian Vogue's monochrome work was printed in his Glasgow flat, with the advent of digital he is now on the bread line. I'll check my notes and post how I did it.

I like the effect in pic number 4, it seems (to me anyway) to fit better in a black and white picture, but I do prefer the untouched number 1
