Also I don't think a photo necessarily needs to stand on its own, the explanation of what was happening made me enjoy the picture more.

Interesting image to play with that way. In the interest of a peaceful home life, I'd still crop your wife. Well, I should say if it were me, I'd crop me out! Daniel was right...women, food, eating...not so much a good thing in a picture! Gorgeous light, by the way.
