This one seemed easy, perhaps too easy?  Every photo we take should include a gray scale!

Well it is a good idea...the greyscale...but.....

You still might have a few problems here.....This one has some mixed lighting issues and while you have given it a really good start please see the screen shots attached...

I would also look at the highlights and verify the detail is all in there....

Thanks for the criticism.  I gave this image a second attempt.  I used the dial to verify that the two middle gray blocks were, indeed, neutral.  As far as highlight detail is concerned, I moved my highlight pint to the skull's cheek and really reduced the amount of area that was appearing as clipped highlights.  I don't believe that there is any more highlight detail to rescue form this image.

Thanks for checking the highlights.  That is one area I sometimes have "issues" with.  It is also why I asked rather than "accused"...lol...

The color looks good....
