Thanks Ruud, Svetlana and Jim. Jim, if you look at the details you will see I took this image at 3200 ISO. It was almost dark. Details tend to go away with too much noise reduction. Noise in B&W looks pretty much like film grain to me. The grain (noise) in this image is no worse than if I had shot it with Tri-X in 35mm, but I could not have taken this shot at ISO 400. Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Gorgeous shot, Paul.  Beautifully orchestrated composition and lovely expression, especially on the face of the kid staring at the camera.  I adore the slight graininess in this image, in fact, and am glad you did not over-manipulate to get rid of it.  It suits the mood of this picture, and it echoes the grain of earth that lies about both on a physical and symbolic level in my view.  Regards, -h.
