[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 835410, member: 50197"] I've never used PS for denoise operations, and am rather inexperienced in the use of layers, except for specific operations I can't do in LR. I suppose I could process the image in Topaz using different slider inputs, then import the two into PS and try my hand at using layers. I really should become more knowledgeable and comfortable with using PS. I did process the RAW file from scratch in LR using their new(ish) auto denoise feature. I don't really like using it, as it takes forever to process on my computer. I was wondering if it might do a better job than Topaz in this instance. Here is the result. Yes, they are slightly different in cropping and tone, as I didn't take the time to try and match the two, but rather just tried to make the best of the image. Here it is: [ATTACH type="full"]421041[/ATTACH] The original Topaz processed full image for easy comparison: [ATTACH type="full"]421046[/ATTACH] And here's a closeup of the original Topaz processed image: [ATTACH type="full"]421043[/ATTACH] And a similar closeup of the LR processed image: [ATTACH type="full"]421044[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
