Thanks all....and
For those curious...
This is a 5 shot HDR on an older Olympus dSLR. Is it juiced up, some? Yes.
I am certified "non pixel peeper" and on the small screens it was intended to be viewed on, I don't notice noise.
Processing was (5) RAW images, blended in photomatix, a jpg produced then it went in to LR for final sizing/sharpening.
Cheers...
