#3 is exceptional. Great comp, great lighting, nice background. The fact he is barefoot adds to the image. Very nice!

These are all very nicely done RP - you did a great job of capturing an extremely pleasing and soft tonal range from deep shadow to bright highlight.

There is solid contrast and yet nothing is lost in the brighter range. It looks like you had solid rapport with the subject, and that shows in his relaxed, open demeanor. That's one of the challenges of good portraiture, to put the individual at ease.

Great set. I also am really liking #3, however, his neck looks kind of scrunched. Great PP, very natural looking. The composition of the last frame is super :)

love #3 as well although I agree with Lindsay. I'd love to see his head back a bit resting against the wall. great set. personally, so take it for what its worth, I don't like props when out of context (like a chair in a field since it would never actually be there). just makes things seem too unnatural to me when you are shooting a subject as natural as the one you are. again, just my opinion but that's why those few don't do much for me.
