You might like to try a plug in for Photoshop called Focus Magic. It is a two step anti blur program.... Here is the link....http://www.focusmagic.com/

Here is your original



and a quick go with the plugin...

Nice Camera work, not easy to work with black against snow and manage the contrast.

It can't be easy keeping a car that clean in that weather ?

Maybe you get the yellow guy to do it for you.....!

Keeping the car clean in this weather is 100000000 times easier than in any other weather actually.
Everything is frozen so there's no dirt anywhere. If it snows, the snow is light and dusty and makes no mess. Pure powder.

No need to wash the car in 5-6 weeks.

We've got tons of new snow this week and the car is still clean !

When leaving work there have been about 5cm / 2" of new snow on the car every day. I never use a brush or anything to wipe the snow off (except the windshield and other windows of course) to avoid scratches. And there's no need to! FK1000P works great on the paint and all the snow will be blown off from the car when I accelerate to 60-80kmh / 37-50mph leaving a shiny finish. Smooth....

I also have ordered some new detailing stuff and waiting them to arrive soon.
