Lighting: The lighting is well balanced, but a catchlight in his eyes would have helped. The color cast needs to go.
Pose: Th pose is fine. Nice shirt! :) I hope you and your brother had fun doing this one.
Background: Works well.
Looking at the knowing half grin and the very noisy shirt, I would have to guess that Bob is a trouble maker or at least a character! (just kidding, I'm sure he's a very nice. fun guy!) This shot seems to give off a feeling of what kind of person he is! Lighting does the job, and gives the shot depth. Could stand to have some catchlight in the eyes though. Haven't quite figured out how to do this myself...

What a great looking guy - he looks almost as good as his brother Dave. He could stand to lose a few pounds thougg and I think he looks like Dan Akroyd.
Does Dave know you borrowed his shirt? LOL
Good portrait; lighting is effective but a bit warm for my taste. The shirt is also a bit "busy," along with the undershirt peeking out...it seems to have a bit of print on it and together that gives the eye too much to take in, IMHO. I would have preferred either no undershirt or the hawaiian shirt opened with a more complimentary undershirt. But that's just me. Good effort, regardless. :o)
a very good protrait, love the color in his shirt but maybe crop it at about the second button from the top so it doesn't compete for your viewer's attention quite so much. I think a slightly lighter background color would have improved this, his head doesn't really stant out and loses definition.
I just found you on your brother's picture.
I see the humor in it to have 2 \"same\" pictures in this challenge, but here's an idea.
When you would have taken a picture with the 2 of you together, you on the left, and your brother on the right, and your brothers shot, exactly the same picture, but you on the right and your brother on the left...
This would have made it even more obvious and funnier. Well if it is meant funny offcourse otherwise this whole text would make no sence..
Lighting good, backgroud good, focus good, hawai shirt very bad!
