		In order to get a cool efect let`s create some frames. Frame #1 will be exactly the image you got first page:

		Frame #2: For this frame, take Samara`s layer and duplicate it (Layer -> Duplicate Layer)

		Then aply Motion Blur of 5 px (Filter -> Blur -> Motion Blur). Move Samara`s layer before duplicate with 2 pixels left and then move the duplicated layer 7 pixels to the left. Move the background with 2 pixels to the left. Now you should have: So far we have 2 frames: #1 samara and the background and #2 with Samara`s layer moved 2 px left and then Samara`s duplicated layer (also blurry this time) moved left with 7 px
		We wont stop here, we move next to the frame #3
		What you need to do here is to duplicate the blurry layer and mirror it, i mean move it to the right having the exact 7 pixels to the right. Move the background with 2 pixels to the left.

		move the original Samara image layer to the right with 2 pixels. Also, move the background with 2 pixels to the left.
		Frame #6: The last layer will be the result of deselecting every layer and having just the original Samara layer, i mean you`ll have just the first layer with her and move the background with 2 pixels to the left
		Using ImageReady: And the final will be:
