Unfortunately attempting to eliminate image noise/grain via the use of edge masks gives quite poor results compared to the better dedicated noise removal tools. I use edge masking techniques after grain removal on occasion but it is really image dependent, the effect can make some images look quite un-natural. The technique is described in the following link, it's easy to turn into an action too, I have mine set so that it stops at the levels adjustment layer so that I can control the mask width per image. http://www.naturescapes.net/042004/ps0404.htm Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
