This is good too. But my same critique would stand for this one too.
A little warmer. Especially when you do skin tones. The skin tones have to jump out more. Granted if your going for a mood and if this is what you wanted I understand.
But again the photo is not ripe yet.
Please I hope this is constructive criticism. These are good photos.
but good balanced color is key to round it out.
Cheers.

I appreciate feedback from other photographers. I'm always looking to improve of course.

They're raw images, and when I saved them as jpegs after my editing the color gets changed a bit and especially when he posts them on this site, they appear more grey and dull - we don't know why it happens? The images are actually very vibrant on our computer.

Really...!
I do know that if you upload on DA, you have to bump up your color saturation just shy of too hot when it comes to color.
I don't know what to say. Maybe if you have access to other computers, check the difference on other computers.

Do you use Photoshop?
If not Picnic which is on flickr.com might be able to help bump up your colors.
I find if I have to make the color in my photos snap out more.
I generally increase the color and contrast just a bit to compensate for the loss from uploading.

Yes I use Photoshop, I do retouching as a side job. My own photos always come out the color I want them and don't change when I upload them here, so I just figure it's got something to do with raw images
