Seeing disturbing noise in your pictures?

Are you puzzled by what was being said? How could noise be seen?

Noise, as in digital photography, actually refers to any unwanted specks or dots of random colours in a portion of an image that should otherwise show smooth or continuous colour. Digital images shot in low light situations or high ISO settings are prone to exhibiting this type of undesirable “grainy” effect called noise. This is due to the limitations of the sensor and circuitry inside the camera, which fails to produce a consistent level of colour of the object due to inadequate light exposure. An example can be seen below:
