Ya did real well. The thing with photos, especially portraits is to let the viewer get into the image without interference from the title and or subject matter. That way the viewer gets the message you intended and they can discover things in their own way and pace. That first portrait is a real keeper and one you should use as a reference point for the future. I wouldn't discount the others but they work on a different level from #1. Your sense of framing is very good and there's dynamic tension where it should be.
