Noise

[hudakore]

I've recently had a few of my photos rejected on a stock photo site because of noise. Is it a safe bet to de-noise all my photos? I do have some problem noticing noise so maybe I should just reduce the noise in all of them. I also had some rejected because of lens fringing and chromatic aberrations, neither of which I know how to control. Any suggestions there?

De-noising all photos is very time consuming, and each time you de-noise a photo, it is possible to lose some sharpness.

So, I think you should probably just de-noise the ones your are submitting. Especially since you don't notice the problem, you don't need to do it on the photos you are not submitting.

Chromatic aberration can sometimes be eliminated by de-saturating a single color in PSE. See http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34925&highlight=purple+fringing
