This is a discussion on Portraits within the People photography (portraits, sports etc.) forums, part of the Show your photo (Color) - Landscape & Nature (flowers, mountains, storms etc.) category; Some outdoor portraits of my friend, Gloria....
I like the second one best. The softer focus and the light through the umbrella really work for me.

I like shot 2 the best, because it has the most flattering skin tones. I also like the colour in the background from the umbrella.

Thanks guys! I think #2 is my preference as well.
Raiven:
My preference if for the third shot; I find the umbrella a little too distracting in the second shot (though as mentioned the skin tones are really much nicer in the second). The third portrait has the background well out of focus and it really brings the viewers attention t o the subject's face. I also like the eyes in the third, very expressive. I like it.
Cheers
