Learn how to create a very effective and basic radial twirl with only two steps.

Step 1: Create a new document 450 x 300px, and fill the background black. Go up to Filter->Render->Lens Flare and put 2 lens flares like in the position below (50-300mm Zoom).


Step 2: Next, go up to Filter->Distort->Twirl (Amount 430). Now duplicate the layer and go up to Image->Adjustments->Hue/Saturation and check the "Colorize" box and select a dark purple color. Than go up to Filter->Blur->Radial Blur (Amount: 100, Zoom, Best) and put the blending mode on "Overlay." Add whatever else you would like and boom.
