Having trouble with my photos showing digital noise. I edit in LR and PS and have my image size at 1600px. Any ideas how to get rid of this?

	Is the digital noise before editing?

Use the noise reduction tool in filters-> noise or use luminance in the Camera-Raw-Filter.

And use the size of 1024px, it will show less noise ;).

	Or use dfine from the NIK Collection .. It does a very good job !

	Nik Define is excellent as is Topaz Denoise 6. I recommend treating the image before downsizing or any other edit, as a first step. After your edit, check again if noise is present and perhaps run a lighter pass of cancelation.

	Thanks everyone! Hopefully I'll be back to submitting soon.

	Still having troubles. I've tried just editing in Photoshop and then I tried Photoshop and Nik while saving at 1600 px and I also tried 1204px but they are still showing digital noise. I am not comfortable with risking an upload and having it most likely getting rejected, but I do have lots of pictures to upload for sure. What do you guys suggest?
