Download your fixed photo

Review your corrected sports photo and download in high resolution. Perfect for team websites, social media, or framing. If you want additional adjustments, just describe them.
Use markers for precise fixes

If you need to target a specific player or area, tap markers on those spots and describe the refinement. Most sports photo fixes work perfectly without markers.

Tip: Markers are helpful when you want to sharpen a specific player without affecting others in motion

If something looks off

AI sharpened the wrong player in a group action shot

Why: Without markers, the AI may guess which player you meant

Try: Use markers to tap on the specific player, then 'sharpen this player'

Try This →

Tip: For team action shots, always use markers to specify exactly which player to fix

Background removal left artifacts around the player's jersey

Why: Fast-moving fabric edges can be tricky to separate cleanly

Try: Try 'clean up the edges around the player's jersey'

Try This →

Tip: Solid color backgrounds hide edge issues better than detailed replacement scenes

Lighting fix made the photo look unnatural

Why: The AI may have overcorrected the exposure

Try: Try 'slightly brighten while keeping natural gym lighting'

Try This →

Tip: Use words like 'slightly' and 'subtle' to avoid over-correction

Fence removal left visible patterns in the background

Why: Chain link patterns can leave traces when removed

Try: Try 'blur the background slightly to hide any fence artifacts'

Try This →

Tip: A slight background blur can make fence removal cleaner and adds professional depth

Quick answers

Can I fix motion blur in fast action sports photos?

Yes! Just describe the problem: 'sharpen the player' or 'fix the motion blur on the athlete.' The AI can recover details from moderately blurry action shots, making faces and jersey numbers visible again.

How do I remove spectators and crowds from sports photos?

Tell EditThisPic what to remove: 'remove all the spectators from the background' or 'remove the crowd behind the player.' The AI will fill in the background naturally while keeping your athlete in focus.

Can I fix dark indoor gym photos?

Absolutely! Indoor sports facilities often have poor lighting. Try 'brighten the photo and fix the underexposed lighting' to reveal details while maintaining a natural look.

Is there a free sports photo editor without watermarks?

Yes! EditThisPic is free to try with no signup required. You can sharpen action shots, remove crowds, and fix lighting without any watermarks on your edited photos.

Can I remove fences and barriers from sports photos?

Yes, you can remove chain link fences, nets, and barriers. Try 'remove the fence from the photo' and the AI will reconstruct the background behind it. Works great for baseball, tennis, and other sports shot through barriers.
