Is this a pastel?

I think pastel, I can see the color in his eyes in first picture. But my first thoughts were, that he looks very skinny. I might be concerned about his health.

Ok, I should have said that lighting will not change the fact that it's a pastel, regardless of what you're seeing. Just like any other morph, pastels can greatly vary, but it won't change what it is.

Looks like a pastel to me. But like people have said, he looks thin. If you do get him make sure to quarantine him.

I would want a photo that isn't overexposed, and shows his head, because it's awfully dark for a pastel (the head that is).
The body looks like it could be a pastel, but I'd want a good head shot, personally.

It is the end of the breeding season, so I expect any male that's been breeding, or that's been in a rack with females and off feed, to be rather thin, but I'd also recommend quarantining him plenty.

I see a really browned out pastel.

I see a very brown pastel.

Looks like your average adult pastel. My first male pastel looked just like that in photos with bad lighting.

Very skinny though.
