#Fixing out of focus photos with jasc paint shop pro 8 iso#
The wave was backlit and the surfer is deep in the barrel, it’s definitely worth a go.Īs far as softness goes, this photo isn’t too bad, there isn’t any motion blur. Why not just accept failure and delete it?īecause I like the shot, it’s not something I can easily reproduce because surf like this is not a regular occurrence where I live, this would definitely be considered a classic day. The surfer is soft and blurry but the shoulder of the wave is tack sharp. In the above photo, I had the wrong focus point selected. It’s a photo I took of a local surf spot on a very good day. It’s frustrating, and sometimes you can’t just go back the next day and repeat the photo, especially if it’s an action shot or a wildlife shot.Īs I began writing this, I suddenly remembered I had one such picture I wanted to try and repair in Photoshop. Sometimes you can have the wrong focus point selected, but sometimes the autofocus just screws it right up.
No matter how careful or how experienced you are every now and again a photo will come out softer than you were hoping for.
