Shot of my wife concentrating on her knitting that she had made a mistake on and was trying desperately to sort out. Taken with a single tungsten light (hence the high iso) then converted to B&W
Thank you all so much for all your C&C's very much appreciated, a huge thank you to Gareth for his UA on my image of yesterday
Thanks for taking the time to look
Hugh

The lighting and crop suits the expression very well, Hugh.

She's a much more patient women than I am, in various respects...
Beautiful intimacy, beautiful grain.

Great portrait. I like the gritty grainy look ( though not sure your wife would see it as flattering ! ). You must have a really tolerant family Hugh ! 
The noise / grain I like it gives the shot some age as in the B+W prints of the past however I see some vertical lines in the dark areas and this could be a sign of the processor working just too hard. For this shot I'd have said exposure of 1/500th would have worked as well allowing you to drop the ISO to 3200 or 6400 so keeping the grain effect but loosing the banding noise.
