help with grains

[shahar]

Hi

It's my first time here.
I have a picture to restore that is full of grains.If I use blur the skin gets unnatural. What can I do?

Hi shahar,

Welcome to RP!

To remove/reduce grain/noise from a picture, you could try this excellent Tutorial by Vikki...

If the grain/noise is very strong, you could try this other Tutorial ... If you are still not happy with the result, you could post the picture, or part of it, and somebody will give you specific advice.

If you don't know yet how to post a picture here, just follow the links below my signature and you'll find step-by-step instructions.

Hi Flora

Thanks so much for your help. It was the first time i heard about neat image. I downloaded the demo and will go after the plug in soon.
It's great to be part of this group.
