Help me improve this picture. School of eagle rays.

[divebrasil]

Hi, I just came from a trip in Oahu and I did manage to take some decent pics, but one that didn't come out good was the school of eagle rays next to the MS Mahi Wreck. They were too far away and I didn't manage to get close enough.

I did work on the pic a bit and it got better, but very noisy/pixelated. I was wondering if one of you guys would be able to do a better job.

I am attaching small versions of the pic, but you can download the original in RAW from the URL below.

Let me know if you would like to make it smaller to speed the download a bit.

Thanks so much

The link does not work for me...

Have you tried a good noise remover? This one is considered very good and it is freeware. Do all you want to the image (cropping, whatever), save as a jpeg, and run the image through Neat Image. It works wonders.

I never process a WA without it. And with all the shooting I do at night, its saved many, many shots.

Been a fan since release 1. Just love it! The PS plug in is great.

HI Guys, thanks for offering to help.
The link works for me, but here is another option.

Go to
http://www.snowbrasil.com/picture/

and download the only file in that folder. It's the original RAW and has 11MB.

Thanks

I'd take Lisa up on this, she's a genius when it comes to this kind of stuff.
