That's why I said that this image is not the best of the best. If I
recall, this was the first time I used NeatImage. It is possible to fine
tune the filter settings for "high frequency" (high detail) areas and if
you're careful you can get very good results. For pathological cases I
suppose you could do a selection in Photoshop and apply the NeatImage
filter with different settings on this selection and on the rest of the
image.

I've only printed it in 8x10". Grain-wise the image looks very smooth.
I believe that you can get a demo version of NeatImage and experiment
with it.
Have fun!
