Thank you for all of the comments, they mean a great deal. This is my wife Janet and my Daughter Ruby. Perhaps not the most representational likeness of either of them- being that my daughter has that pained look on her face, of tiredness, impatience, etc.
It is nice to have them on my front page, whatever the expression, and, this was the third best scoring shot i have ever had- so, things may be looking up.
here's an outtake.

Really nice, I love the glow on the child`s skin, how it contrasts with the lady. It just seems to give a real sense of time to the photo (I hope I explained that right!)
The expressions are just great - such angst or is it longing. There's a story begging to be told by these two. The black and white is just right and because they are looking both ways, the centered position in the frame works well for me. One of my top five; voted earlier.
