But we can go into the detail studio, and here we could turn on noise reduction by dragging the strength slider, and we could control the amount to which the noise applies to the color, which is preset at 100%, and the luminance. And as we drag the luminance, you can see how soft this is getting. But in fact, on the image we're working with, there's very little noise there, so we can turn that off. We can, however, enhance the detail by increasing both the radius and the amount, and this is a sharpening filter that brings a lot of extra detail particularly into these architectural areas. There it is before, and there it is after we've applied this refinement. If we wanted, we could also add noise to this image if we want to go for that grainy effect. Let's not do that in this case.
