Thank you Kim and Alexandra.

The brothers are not twins. The one in the back is the oldest but not by much. Their sister is the youngest.

I moved them (and the light source) from my original plan so they really didn't have a say in who stood or sat. And, they didn't have a problem with it either. The sister and her oldest brother are very, very tall so I had to juggle their placement. The seated brother showed up with a tan (golf pro from South Carolina) and the other two were white snow birds. The photo was taken on Dec. 23 on their way from the airport to a family Christmas function (this is a surprise for their mother) so putting the tan brother
closest to the light source evened out their skin color a little better. They were extremely patient with me while I worked them around and tried different compositions. This one was by far my favorite. It just looked......comfortable and right. I'm pleased you like it.

I tried to change my photo in my first post but the color and the contrast still looks off to me on my monitor.
