How to Enhance Car Photos with Motion Blur (Free software; GIMP, tutorial) (Dom Bower)
In this video i show you 2 ways to apply motion blur to an image of a stationary car to make it looks like it is moving. This tutorial uses the free software called GIMP which has many of the same controls as adobe photoshop and also with its easy use of layermasks makes it more simple than adobe photoshop elements. This is not a case of cheating photography but enhancing your images post produciton. I will also show you how to make the car stand out even more after applying motion blur ...

You don’t have to use the eraser tool, just swap the colors (from black to white) and the result will be the same
