It's a short, easy process with great results.

The tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJFHbUltELc
It teaches about polar coordinates and the wind filter, among others.
Great for beginners to advanced users of PS.

EDIT: I am NOT the creator of the tutorial. Yankfroggy (click his youtube name) is the creator.
