    Have you got a higher resolution version of the photo or tried setting it the image as the background via the Photos app (select the photo and use the share icon to 'set as wallpaper') ? Or turning 'reduce motion' on : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5595

     

    iOS 7 uses a parallax effect to create the perception of depth on your Home screen and elsewhere. When this feature is on, you may notice that your:

    • Wallpaper, icons, and alerts shift slightly as you move your phone.
    • When setting a wallpaper in Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness, the photo or image will be slightly zoomed and cannot be scaled to fit to the screen.

     

    You can change this behavior by enabling Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion.

    If the solution suggested by the other poster does not work, you may want to try my workaround:
