Although it's not the purpose for which it was designed, the new Color Replacement tool in Photoshop CS is an incredibly efficient way to remove digital noise from photos. Paint away noise quickly and easily!

And, finally, the "Remove JPEG Artifact" option allows you to remove some problems with JPEG Artifacts inside your image if there's a lot of JPEG compression going on. (I left unchecked)

So, you can create a new document 400x300px.

1. Add Noise

Red and green color noise can be easily seen in the picture, especially on the hand. Click Image/Mode/Lab Color in the menu to switch from RGB Color to Lab Color. The Channels palette still contains 3 color channels, but they are very different from the others. The Lightness channel contains the lightness values of the picture. The graininess appearing on it is called "luminance noise". Channels 'a' and 'b' are the color channels of the picture. You can reduce color noise by changing their values.

Duplicate the original layer on the Layers palette, or click Layer/Duplicate Layer. Switch the general effect modes for the layers from Normal to Color. As we're about to filter color noise, only color changes will affect the general effect of the layers. Make sure the upper layer is selected.
