This is week #8 for PAW 2010.

I drive by this lovely yellow Victorian house and the white church every day on my way to and from work. This was taken during my morning commute. I just learned how to use the Orton effect so I tried it here on this already blurry image.

Gotta love that Orton effect! It sure makes this kind of spooky, and I bet it would look great in B&W also.

Nice, creepy shot. Welcome to the wonderful world of the Orton effect. I love it.

The orton effect makes for great colors, but for my taste there is too much blur here from the picture not being in focus and tilted to begin with.

really neat! the blur effect is there, but not too much. it also reminds me of an oil painting as well.

Really like it, very interesting effect. Like the bright house contrasted with the gloomier blues.

like the blur, gives a 'ghost town/house' feeling or something like this

I like how this turned out, lots of motion and a sense of urgency.

This has an almost sinister feel to it. Great edit.

I love the blur. Great colors - I will have to figure out what the Orton effect is.
