I finally caught my son on a clean break-away tonight, but the frame that matters is soft and unusable as-is. I’m looking for a skilled retoucher who can bring back the sharpness without introducing artificial elements.

You’ll receive the blurry hero shot along with several clear action shots of him from the same game so you can reference facial details, jersey texture, and colours while repairing the motion blur. Once the main image looks crisp and natural, please crop a square 1:1 version ready for a custom trading card (think 2.5"×3.5" at 300 dpi, bleed and safe zones intact).

Key points I care about:
• Restore sharpness first; gentle colour balancing is fine if it helps realism.
• No invented logos, text, or random players creeping in—everything should match the reference photos.
• Deliver the full-resolution restored image plus the card-ready crop in JPEG (sRGB) and a layered PSD or TIFF so I can tweak later if needed.

If you’re comfortable with Photoshop, Topaz Sharpen AI, or similar tools and have experience rescuing motion-blurred sports shots, I’d love to see what you can do.
