Here is another attempt but i feel like it still isn't right

OK.  Trying Again.  I switched photos because I wasn't happy with the example.

Trying the crop again

SOOC Noise Removed - SOOR

crop

Apparently, I am failing at this first post.  I have saved the image as a jpeg in the lowest setting and it still says it is too big.  What do I need to compress the image to reach 9.77MB

Samantha-

This is my first time posting.  Can you point me in the direction on the instructions for properly submitting the photos?  

I have read the article about using the two sliders in ACR. In the past I have been good with removing noise, however I had to shoot indoors with no flash in low light at a high ISO. When I remove the noise the picture looks to smooth/fake and I am not sure how to maintain the sharpness while still removing the noise. I am on the waiting list for the raw class also!!
