Trying out a Photoshop Tutorial

Today I followed a tutorial to create a 'Light Burst' effect. The end result could have been better but I tried my best :) If anyone else wants to give this tutorial a go the address is:

I find that following tutorials are helpful because you pick up lots of skills as you go along.
