Yet another method to to reduce noise with two exposures.

Another sample:

The result (with further processing to enhance the image)

 

The result with the exact processing but not using the layer that cleans shadows (that would be what you get if you had 
only one shot of the scene without highlights clipped and processed to recover the shadows).
Note: In fact the previous image had some additional sharpening not applied in this one as the result was even worse

 

 

100% crop of the result after processing:

 

With the same processing but without the cleaner layer.
