A number of times I've noticed you commenting on noise or artifacts in an image that I can't see at all, and I'm wondering why. In this particular case I can clearly see the noise in the flower, and what I think are the dust spots (at least a couple), but the BG just looks solid black to me. I saved a copy of the image, opened it in CS2, and the only way I can get anything to show up in the BG is to pull the Levels middle slider left to around 3 (which is really extreme). My monitor is a Dell 3007WFP 30" LCD, calibrated just yesterday (standard PC 6500K & gamma 2.2). Any ideas?
