This is a great double exposure, and very hard to do with a camera. If this is a print, find the negative and see how it looks. I've had labs do this more then once. :lol (I didn't realize how that was worded until I proof read it.)

im not pro, but you can do it by using unsharp mask the clone stamp and erasing the areas of blur until its all gone

thats what i did, i dont have much time, but look at the area around the dogs head, i took away most of the blur around the top and one ear

Evan3037: Try an inner element like the cheek, or the eyes, or the fingers.

wow sounds like a difficult difficult process to recover it. i was hoping there might be some kind of plug in or filter for correcting this that i've not yet discovered. BTW it's digital so no chance of messing around with the film.
thanks for your suggestions.

The only way I know of is to use the smudge tool and slowly & carefully fix the edges. Then if you have a pen tablet, you can draw back in some stuff by selecting the colour and using the paint brush to redraw the eyelashes and other fine lines. Usually I don't bother with it if it's a blurred photo; it just takes too long.

yup, that sounds like more time than i ever have. thanks anyways.
