[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 443506, member: 12257"] LOL, thanks! I actually went in and (slightly) increased the exposure on that, and sharpened as well. TBH, I use a mix of the Noise Reduction in Perfect Suite 9 and LR CC. Typically, I'll do a touch of NR with the LR slider (no more than 40), when needed, before moving over to the suite to toy around. I'll usually test the NR in the suite, then, but it normally doesn't thrill me with the results vs. the impact on sharpness there, so after porting back to LR, I'll mess with the slider a bit more (no more than 30). I've found, though, that it's usually only the darker areas that suffer from noise at higher ISO, so in this case I used vignette to help cover some of it, just masking out the people. Can't say that I remember the actual amounts of NR or whether or not I did use some inside the suite or not, though, sorry... I'm an edit junkie, and I just toy around until I get what I want, or I've messed it up beyond recovery (in which case I start over). I'd be happy to post a before shot when I get home, if ya like, and at least look at how much of the slider work I did in LR. :) [/QUOTE]
