Grain/Noise Problem

[christyh41182825]

Want some feedback re this please - was declined due to grain/noise problem.  I know that there is "blur" in the background content as a result of the depth of field, but I wanted to get some input re  the noise issue?  Thanks!

This is a great photo except - The background does have blur, lots of objects and noise. The foreground of snow might also have grain or noise problems. Cat looks very good - some hairs on left might need sharpening. Tough one for me. Good luck. JH

Hi,

Blurred image background is generally a means of creating an image, which is correct. But here you should make sure that the effect is not technically destroyed by excessive sharpening and increased noise.

Here is a section from the background of your picture:

This is what a correct blurred background in the magnification should look like:

I hope this could help you.

I use Topaz DeNoise6 on images where I have that problem. It works sometimes and sometimes not. I used it on your image and it looks 100% better. I am not sure if Adobe has a problem if someone is using DeNoise or not. But here ya go
