Silas as Orton effect

Silas Orton EffectMy attempt at the Orton effect, an effect developed by Michael Orton in an attempt to imitate watercolour painting with photography. Initially it was done using multiple slides sandwiched on top of each other. Digital has made similar effects easier and this is mine, done in GIMP.

Did it work?

Silas, Silas, Silas

Taken at the National zoo in DC

one of these is the real Silas
the other two I stole from two other photos I took. All were in the pararie dog maze at the zoo and taken with the Pentax 10-17 fish eye

so will the real Silas please stand up

have a guess which is the original Silas
