Hi B.D.,
The Harvard shot is my first choice. I'm a sucker for rain drops on windows 
with interesting backgrounds just barely distinguishable in the background.

I noticed someone made a comment about the background building being too 
centred, I think it's to each his own. But I feel this kind of shot due to 
composition needs the building centre because the rain drops are the main 
element and they make it all come together.

The other two? Mother and child #2:

A nice example of "LIGHT-EYES-RE-ACTION" ;-) and shooting from the shadow 
side as subtle as it is, but it makes the picture work along with the other 
two elements for successful pictures.

Portrait is #3.. The extra burning was a little over done. However, heck 
we've all done that on more than one occasion so it's no big deal. ;-)
