The Orton Effect
Ever since I got a pretty good camera I've been working on learning more about photography and taking better photos. I've also been working on being better with photoshop (and other tools) so I can do more with the photos that I take. One site that I like keep up on is photojojo. They frequently post tutorials on some of the cool things you can do with photoshop (and other tools). Take the Orton Effect for example. It is pretty easy to do and it gives your photos a softer sort of surreal effect (see the example of the attached picture). So if you want to learn new photo editing skills over time check out photojojo.
