Ice Hockey problem - shooting through scratched glass. - 5354photos - 04-25-2025

I am a newbie, using GIMP 2.10.38

In this ice hockey photo, there is some haze in the middle mainly due to shooting through scratched glass. I wonder how should I fix it? I use dehaze ...
I may want to try some masking before dehazing?

Your advice is appreciated

You could try a gmic_gimp_qt filter fom http://www.gmic.eu  (There is a Windows installer for Gimp 2.10) Edit Oops - using linux - there are linux versions there as well.

then... maybe one of the sharpen filters.... there is a sharpen dehaze but it seems to introduce artifacts so I might go for the Sharpen(Whiten) filter.

Let it make a new layer and put the layer into a mode (try various) This one Vivid light.

A lot of your "haze" is focus or motion blur, given the "Binggrae" in the back seems somewhat sharper.
