I just had put this picture on my desktop, and i say all these little white specs on the picture, it looked like noise, but i don't know how that could be since i had 50 ISO on my G6. So i was wondering if anyone can see what i'm talking about and tell me a way to fix it?

They look like shells to me...

I don't see any white spots. That just looks like a great photo of somewhere near where I grew up.. Muscles on the rocks - hard on the feet!

That's the only thing I'm seeing - that and whitecaps on the water.

I don't see them either. Downloaded the picture and to look at it. Looks like a great picture.

I see what you mean but no idea what it's from. Can't be noise as they are all in the bottom of the picture and the sky is clean. Must be something reflecting light.

I still think those are shells. Maybe wet. We also have some pixelation, which may exaggerate the effect.

I think it's shells, too -- but I'm wondering if you over-sharpened the image??? That could explain the white specks, I think.

Hi there

It does at least LOOK like a little over sharpening...Maybe there was a reflective mineral in the rock.

But anyway just duplicate the layer... use the burn tool set to highlights... experiment with the exposure then darken the specs.

Ok thanks guys, i think the camera took the shot a little on the saturated side, since i did no post processing to this at all. I give it a go and hopefully it'll come out better.

I also go with oversharpened - or where it appears over sharpened when you reduce jpg for web.

But it is really too small to tell.
