What to do with a bad photo that matters?
Try as we might there are always times when we don't get the money shot.
I'm occasionally called upon to deliver the goods at home, at a moments notice, when... well... I'm in no fit state to hold a camera let alone focus it...  So this is one of my go to remedies... it's not OOF it's 'ART' !!!  Not really a image review... more a confession...  Photography is not a crime, but perhaps my abuse of artistic license is?

Works for me. And if I can't get an image white balanced then it becomes a B&W or sepia toned masterpiece.

mmm cookies...
OOF shots, add a bit of glamour glow and she'll be right  just say it was deliberate, artistic license  gerry's photography journey
No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.

Yep well... gotta keep shots like that somehow... in a few years time the grand kids will have less innocent and inviting tee shirts worn !!!
Thought others might like to get some ideas on ways to salvage important moments less well captured. Photography is not a crime, but perhaps my abuse of artistic license is?

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
Re: What to do with a bad photo that matters?
If a photo has personal significance, nothing else matters. Although, the average lay person loves various PS effects so you can go to town on them if you feel that the OOF.
For the record, I have exactly the same picture with cupcakes also out of focus!!! There is some merit to using the P mode with full auto with family events. Just need to remember to flick the AF/MF switch please.
