Thank you for the comment. I had not noticed the tint, but will see if I can post process as you suggest.
Well, yes, Bill uses the phone quite a lot, mainly because his wife calls him frequently! I suppose frequency of phone use would be unknown to viewers of this image, and thus that factor of composition would not be meaningful except within the model's circle of acquaintances.
I appreciate your taking the time to offer your impressions.
