Trying out the Topaz Labs DeNoise ... so are you saying that the smoother images are more preferable?

Re: on another walk


Not to smooth

quote

"It is common today for both camera manufacturers and photographers to strive for noise-free images. On the other hand, noise – even noise that is deliberately added to an image – sometimes enhances the image when printed on paper. Since noise does not add any real detail or information to an image, how can it possibly be beneficial to a print?

The digital printing process requires resampling an image from its original resolution to a printer's own resolution. This resampling process can produce visible artifacts such as blocky edges and areas that appear unnaturally smooth and flat. These artifacts become more noticeable as the image is enlarged, especially with really big blowups. Adding noise breaks up these artifacts and provides the illusion of a more natural, detailed appearance, even though no real detail has been added."

So do you use particular upsizing software?

I use PS to upsize and downsize, but when it comes to printer resolution don't matter what you size to, the printer will do it behind your back, sneaky emoticon

Re: on another walk


Both images are nice Chris. I am on a non calibrated monitor at the moment, but they both look to have good shadow detail. I especially like the comp of 2.

Regards,

Dave
