It would be great if you could reduce the noise in your photos, and they would be perfect.

Well, I think there's a certain vintage charm to it :-)

I just processed M42 through Cosmic clarity, but there's always a balance between noise and detail. For me, this is the optimal balance, but of course, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"...
