You can vote for your favorite portrait. The reason I have to set up a poll is to know what the viewers think regarding my portrait shots.
Have been in photography for the last 5 months so I consider myself a newbie.
The category is "Portrait using Natural Lighting"
All pictures are not post process.

white_knight0731,
...I have a slight problem with this poll:
If you wanted a purely photographic poll on which shot we like best (The category is "Portrait using Natural Lighting"), then you better not 'Title' them.
Now, the title also plays along: the 'Poverty' shot will probably 'win' the poll, because it is the most strong 'title/image' combination.
In other words: by giving the images a title, you 'force' the audience to look at them from *that* perspective...
When *I* look at your shots, as you now posted them, 'poverty' is the clear winner.
Without a title, IMHO #1 and/or #7 would be more serious contenders, as *I* like the shots better, but 'in combination with the title' they are not that strong...
...as always, all the above is just *my* €0.02 worth... YMMV...
My kindest regards and respects,
