Evening on snowboard

I am learning something new every day. I had a great day on the slope yesterday, so when I remembered I have to take some photos for my Lensbaby class last assignment, it was already too dark. Great. Earlier, it was too bright (well, I still don’t have any filters for this lens, and it was a gorgeous day, sunny and cloudless). After four tries, I thought I had what I wanted for a panning exercise, but ISO 1600 is not very smooth looking. So, only one solution- noise reduction software. As I have policy of taking photos at ISO 100 to make my life easier, which is not too complicated when you can plan your photo sessions, I never used any soft like it before. I am also not planning to do it in near future, so I went and downloaded 15-days demo of NikSoftware Dfine. No time for in-depth playing with it today (who is not going to Super Bowl party?), so just Automatic settings applied and here it goes.
