Without looking at the board, I do not recall that you have the ability to take "En Passant". Shall get back to you......

Oh, I follow you now. En Passant only comes into play if one of us has a pawn on the "5th" rank and the opponent moves a pawn 2 squares on th opening move of that pawn. No, once your pawn is on the 4th rank "En Passant" does not come into play.
