Figure 3 is leaned back in his chair with his hands together on his stomach, he is wearing a cardigan, black pants, and glasses. Figure 4 has a closed mouth smile and is darker than the rest, as if the photo was taken in shadow, he is bald, has glasses on and is wearing a plaid shirt. Figure 5 has a tired expression on his face and is wearing a white shirt, with the light cast on his right side.
