step 1 of 9

An image of my dog I took a couple month ago. He was swimming in a pond and when he started shaking off the water I snapped away with my camera.

step 2 of 9

Created a channel from the contest image to have a selection

step 3 of 9

Placed the selection over the dog's contour and jumped this selection to a new layer.

Note: I forgot to take a snapshot here and I had to recreate this step and the next for this tutorial. So the lines are not at the same spot as in the final image; in case you were looking for clues where the tiles went.

I tried various methods to move the tiles away from the center but finally had to select/move each every tile by hand.

Added some Radial Blur with the zoom method to this layer. Duplicated this layer once more and set blending to Multiply making the motion blur stronger
