Tantalizing Tunnel Technique
The Tunnel Effect is among the most rarely used photo design technique in Adobe Photoshop. I don’t know why, but as for me, only morons can’t apply this style to their ugly photos or images.
It’s actually very simple. All you need to have is a little creativity, patience, and some pictures you’ve taken from your digital camera or personal digital assistant. And oh, we’ll be needing a huge brain here. Anyway, if you’re up to the challenge of proving that you’re not an in-born idiot, follow these simple steps and bring back the lost art in your pictures.
The first step is by creating a layer with a pixel-size of 300×300. Choose any colour for your tunnel, but please never pick pink, orange, or neon green. We’re making a tunnel here so you might want to create something with a darker shade. Choose a background to foreground style fill for your gradient or vice-versa.
Proceed to filter-distort-wave menu. Choose square for the type, and 5 for the generator number. Alter the options (amplitude, scale, and wavelength) until it the image looks like a tunnel.
Click on the filter-distort-polar coordinates and choose “rectangular or square to polar”.
Click on NEXT icon to emboss the bevel and click it again to contour.

Can we also add some text to the pictures so that it’ll look like the tunnel is sucking the whole image?

I’ve done the tunnel effect ones and its really nice design. More than that, it’s a complicated technique.
