In column 6, 1 can ONLY go in box 5(r4c4-r6c6) so you can eliminate 1 from other cells in box 5. So r4c4 - {7,8} and r6c4 - {5,8,9}.

If you look at box 5, {1,2} can ONLY go in r4c6 and r6c6. This is called hidden pair. So you can eliminate other possibilities from these two cells.

Then look at row 4. 3 can ONLY go at r4c7. So you can put a 3 there and I think it's pretty much clear sailing from there.
