Step 4 : As soon as you click ok the highlights are selected by a column of 'marching ants'.
Step 5 : Press CTRL+J twice. This will duplicate the background layer twice -- Layer1 and Layer1 copy.
Step 6 : Go to Filter>Blur>Radial Blur.
Step 7 : Set the Amount to 100 or the maximum. Select Zoom for the Blur Method and either Good or Best for Quality.
Step 8 : This is the effect you get.
Step 9 : Press CTRL+J a number of times and you will get this effect.
Step 10 : Press CTRL+J. This duplicates Layer 1 copy to Layer1 copy 2.
And here is the final effect. That was easy was it not?
