Nice shot Bud. I like the magical yellow like eye of it. The shot has high details, it is nice sharp. But I cannot imagine why did you need noise reduction at ISO200?

Gábor - Hi Happy you enjoyed the owl. To answer your question, I do a denoise process on every shot just as the first step of the workflow that I do. Fortunately, the Topaz DeNoise plug-in has several levels of correction and I believe on this shot I used RAW lightest. The shot probably could have stood without it, but I like to process consistently.
