This effect was generated in Filter Forge, a Photoshop plugin that allows you to create your own filters.
With the version Photo Frame Close-up 1, you get to pick 3 best areas of your main image and close them up. Your original image will be in the bigger square and you will get to change de close-up by controlling zoom and offset.
Important notes:
1) If you intend to use this filter to offset print 300DPI or so on, depending the zoom you have applied will upsize the original image in the close areas and it can result in those squares like low resolution in the final print. If you have the original image very large, apply it in the large one and after that downsize the image. Anyway watch out! It is up to you.
2) If you uncheck the Seamless (off) the filter will act weird when moving the close directions. Some areas can be flipped the image.
