I like all three of your Native American layouts, Andrew. I like this one the best. You did a very good job of arranging and lighting your subjects. I think you've successfully painted a portrait with each of the images. It was also nice that you uploaded them at full resolution. I enjoyed looking at them at full-size so I could see textures and details. The only technical problem I can see - and the only real criticism I have - is that it looks like your white balance is too warm in all of the images. I'm guessing you used the auto white balance. Auto white balance really doesn't work well in tungsten lighting. It should, but I haven't encountered a camera yet that handles it well. You should use the tungsten preset white balance on your D70. It will be much more accurate and balance out the overly warm tones in these images. I actually like the warmth a bit. But it would be better to start with accurate color and then warm it up.
Thanks for posting these. They're neat photos to have on the site. If you've got more, please post them. And maybe tell us more about the reasons you made them. I'd like to know the story behind the project.
