There are three reasons this one works best for me of the set.

1. The look in his eyes is piercing. The combination of his look and your timing have created the effect of him looking at the viewer, not the camera. It is nice when that happens.
2. The point of view you chose combined with his chin angle. The dreaded "shot from below" chin look is canceled by his head being tipped forward and down. The position works.
3. The slack angle of the bench lends itself well to the pose he is in.

All in all, good stuff!

If you don't mind a suggestion, the garden border (?) in the lower left and the round light in the middle are a touch distracting. I think it would look better if they were cloned out carefully.
