Anyone know of a good program for blurry pictures?

[CraKaJaX]

Basically, got back from the Blind Faith concert with a couple of blurry pictures (I can't hold the god damn camera steady at a concert) and am looking for some kind of program that might be able to focus them a little bit better. There has got to be something like this. Either way, the concert was absolutely unbelievable. They even played some Hendrix tunes -- Them Changes, Little Wing, and Voodoo Chile (original on Electric Ladyland) .... holy shit. Apparently Winwood played organ for that album with Hendrix? I never knew that, but that's what the guy sitting behind me told me. I still can't believe I was there. Anyway, does anyone know of what would work in my situation?

For you Winwood and Clapton fans...

Yeah send them to your local CSI!

Soft focus can be fixed, to a point. Jittery hands make it MUCH harder to fix.

Host them somewhere, I'll take a look, if you like.

There are issues beyond the blur there; the highlights appear to be completely gone in example 1, almost gone in example 2. Example 3 is in the best shape, and I could probably get something relatively respectable from the high res. YHPM.

What a coincidence, so am I.

Isn't taking pictures at these shows specifically prohibited?

Yup, good luck using one of those at a concert.

There IS a program specifically for this, but I can't remember the name off the top of my head. I saw it on here or over on the photo.net forums in the last couple weeks or so, so don't give up just yet! I believe it's java-based, so that might help in your search.

Um, if they prohibit camera's, it usually says so on your ticket -- and this show did not mention a thing. And either way, at sold out shows at MSG usually 95% of the people have a camera. So in this case, it's a win win situation for me.

Thanks, I'll keep looking.

Would the program you're talking about happen to be "Unshake"?

rivan throw up example 3 when you're done. I want to see what can be done to fix that! (i dont know anything about photo editing/fixing)

Also, Picasa has a built in filter set.

That would be it, good eye! I've never used it, but it could be of a little help to the OP.
