I'm not sure if I think that the use of image enhancing applications should be allowed concering evidence. If sombody did use image enhancing applications and made the evidence appear to be somthing that its not then its wrong. On the other hand if you use image enhancing applications to make the picture easier to be seen, and don't mess up anything to make it appear to be something that its not, then I think its ok. So, overall I think that it depends upon if the image is distorted, or altered in a way to change the overall effect, or if its just made easier to see. As long as its still the same picture then its ok, but if its different then I think that it shouldn't be. If you make the image clearer then it would be possible to see little details that are easily missed in a normal blury camra. But, if you remove or add something then its not the right picture and so then the case could be misinterpited, and then it could be unjust in its arest and such. Therefore, I believe that depending upon the scenerio either way could be right.
