Image titles tell the story. Adding the bevel in step 6 will cover part of the "out of frame" image - the 2nd goose in this case. It isn't shown in step 6 as I'd already erased the bevel where it covered the goose.

The technique isn't limited to an image just coming out of one side of the frame. If you examine images in this how-to gallery's parent gallery you'll see one image that is "out" on all four sides. Use your imagination.
