I meant to add that the 3rd one would've been my fave if it had better lighting on his face and his hands weren't chopped off as they are  I like the bg of that one and the pose-Linda

1.How do you like these?
4th is best lighting but not as good a pose.
In general I don't like them, except the 4th,
due to color issues. 2 have background elements
brighter than the subject which is pet peeve of
mine for this type of photo.
2.Need advise on color tones. (advice)
White shirt has purpley blue cast on two.
Using the white shirt or a white board to
set the white balance under those conditions
may have helped. Some skin has greenish cast.
3.What light do you advise when taking outdoor pics? lens? and for getting more light on the eye area?
Do it when sun is lower in the sky.
Use a white board to reflect light to where
you need it. Even using your flash is sometimes
good in broad daylight. Try to have subject looking up rather than down. This can help with
light and also with minimizing double-chins
(of course there are exceptions. Its just a general rule I keep in mind).
I'm not qualified to say anything at all about lenses so....ZZZZZZZZZZIP!
Here's how I'd fix this one if it were mine.
Left is untouched original, right is mine.

| Why thank you very much for that Niki,,, that was the first thing I saw..the bk being lighter...but what could I do?..it was hot he was tired..ya know..but I did notice that..I suppose cause it was in shade,,I did try the later light but not later enough,I did try and make sure the sun was behind me too... I knew the colors were not good.. He likes them though..it is weird now because I would have liked them before I learned some things too lol , now I am like. No light not good, no pose , no wait...the bk is distracting lol he was getting irked...as all my family does when I start with the "issues" lol... I really appreciate your thoughts and I like what you did with that one too...I will try and convince him to redo.. thanks
