Image is all source. . . no external images used during the creation.

The tree was formed using multiple layering. . with about 4 filters. . .

Layers were created by clipping away portions of the image and further refined via multiple overlays. . . the trunk for the most part was kept the same until the last filter was applied.

Each layer has been filtered by the neon filter (thus color shifted to, yellow, green, red, and blue) with the exception of the truck. Then the motion blur filter was either applied or not applied depending on the layer and desired effect. Distortion was then applied to certain layers (and later those layers were duplicated and shifted - further to darken certain items.)

The following distortion filters were applied. . . Twirl, arc, pinch. They were carefully applied using a temporary mask that was reused on different layers and with multiple filters.

Then the layers were reordered to provide a desired effect (from the original order foreground to background)

Later the background was added which consists of using the gradient tool on the full image (it's actually brown fading to white) and a opacity (white with sandstone).

The original image actually sets with in the photo as well but was pushed close to the back ground. The white boarders were clipped from the original image to allow for the background to flow to the front of the image. (5 years and 3428 days ago)
