In image digitization and transmission, images often suffer contamination inevitably. The noises in images often consist of Gaussian noise and impulse noise. The common denoising algorithms are capable of removing single one of them. In order to remove those two types of noise, a composite algorithm is proposed. Firstly, based on median filter, an impulse noise detection algorithm is used to filter impulse noise. Secondly, adaptive directional lifting wavelet (ADL) and normal lifting wavelet is combined to suppress noise from image signal and protect the texture edge from loss simultaneously. Meanwhile an improved half-soft threshold is used for normal lifting wavelet. At last, simulations show that this technology can suppress Gaussian and impulse noise in image efficiently．
