I raised the upper limit to ISO 12800, left the living room lights off, and the drapes about half open.  Looking around, I decided on old glassware on a bookcase shelf, and a painting by my wife's late aunt.  I finished up with my usual LR and PS editing tools, including Focus Magic, Neat Image and the NIK suite.  I was pleased with the results and will leave the upper limit at 12800.
