Brake!

Before it's too late!

Here in Finland schools have started, and everyone should be extra careful on the road.

Some Picmonkey tricks: I realized I can use 'Effects > Clone' also to copy straight "lines". On computer one can press and hold down Shift-key, and then hold mouse button down to "paint" either vertical or horizontal lines. Probably only one direction works (e.g. horizontal), but one can rotate the image in between, to copy/paint (clone) on lines.

On 'Effects > Focal Zoom' I used 'Advanced > Darken', and the biggest 'Zoom blur', which in this case kept the dark part "sharp", and produced nice pattern of repetitions.
