[QUOTE="hark, post: 531595, member: 13196"] I went back today with the same camera/lens combo--the only difference was this time I used a CP filter plus the sunlight wasn't nearly as dramatic. It was very diffused due to the clouds. I sized this using the same dimensions as the original image. Even upon previewing this image, I don't see any pixelation. No matter how I edited the first image, I couldn't get rid of noise. For this image, I used a monopod which allowed me to lower the ISO to 200. But personally I don't consider the original photo's ISO of 640 to be all that high, yet noise was a factor. In today's image, I didn't even use Nik Dfine because Camera RAW handled it quite well. Most of you won't even give this problem another thought...unless it happens to you. And if it does, please zoom in on your original image and see if there is any noise where pixelation is occurring and also see if there is any streaking of color. Both were present in my original image which I believe contributed to the pixelation problem. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]197917._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
