So, I took some snapshots at a wedding for some friends of mine yesterday, which of course meant that I'd see a lot of mutual friends in attendance. As it happens, one of them was my (young) old friend Heather, who used to serve me beer at one of my preferred watering holes. I got a few decent shots of her, but there's one in particular that's been driving me nuts because I really like it, but for one outstanding flaw:

As you can see, she was talking at the time I took the shot, so there's some motion blur on her lower lip. I've done everything I know how to do to try and salvage the shot, including softening the focus and adding glow. But nothing seems to do the trick.

Any ideas on what I might be able to do to improve the shot by way of glossing over that flaw would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

BTW, here's another, less blurry shot of Lovely Heather.

I'm sure you can understand how that particular watering hole became one of my favorites. I used to pester her to let me photograph her constantly, but she steadfastly refused to my eternal frustration. She finally relented at the wedding, of course -- and thankfully, she's pleased with the results.

Maybe, just maybe, she'll allow me to pursue a more in-depth study someday.
