I agree, it looks a little warm. Here's ANOTHER pic of the trouble-maker

I also kept it looking a little dark on my monitor, because it seems like prints and other monitors show up brighter than my monitor does.

How did I do?

Skin looks fine, only thing I see with it is color is off, looks too warm and yellow to me.

Not sure why but I really like this one:

1/800
f/5.6
200mm
ISO 1250

From Flickr:

My friend Russ.
Just a quick shot we took using two hot work lamps.

This will probably be used for his music project found at:

He's a very heartfelt, creative and emotional lyricist so give him a listen!

Took me a while to get a good color balance.

I did a lot of burning on the background since we did it in his very messy garage, so the edges on him may be rough; but on him all I did was adjust levels, and sharpen it up a bit.

the first camera he handles is a Panasonic.

Well, where is the link to "My first portrait of my old man"?

And why does he not have the camera strap around his neck? Teach him proper technique or be prepared to regularly buy new cameras until he is old enough to buy his own. Oh, hang on you do buy new cameras regularly anyway.
