Nice layers here Gavin
seems to be a fair amount of noise in the image....more so than I would expect at ISO 400...from post processing?

Agree- this could use some noise reduction and still look great. An ominous title!

Thanks for the feedback. The original image is very dark, but I like the pic, so I tried to save it. I am going to go back to it and attempt to remove the noise, which I wasn't that successful with during the first attempt.

ISO 400 should produce almost no noise so I am surmising that this was significantly underexposed and then lifted a couple of stops in post processing.
