What I'll typically do is make whatever adjustments I need to make, save the (unflattened) photoshop image. Then I'll do noise reduction on whatever parts of the image need it, if any, sharpen whatever needs it, if any, and save a JPEG of that for output. I might save any masks I use to do that, though. My sharpening workflow is generally pretty mechanical, so if I need to redo this over, it doesn't take more than a couple of minutes.

I've not done much with photoshop because, well, I know next to nothing about using it (or gimp, really--probably the most advanced image editing I've done has been in xv). This shows some of the possibilities for something that can be done when you really think you've got an interesting subject. Cool article.
