Bare hands stick out badly, too. I always try to wear some kind of glove while sitting in a stand, even if it's warm outside. I don't always wear camouflage, but I always cover my face and hands. They make gloves out of the same material that face masks are made from that aren't too hot to wear.
It's good to hunt with the sun at your back but it is important not to "skyline" yourself. The human silhouette is very distinct and movements will definitely be seen, even with the sun in their eyes. This is just as important while hunting in trees as it is sitting on a hill. I like to have cover behind me as well as in front of me, if possible.
Learning to sit absolutely still will do more to increase your success than anything else. When I was first getting into to hunting from trees, an older, successful hunter told me something that has always stuck with me. "When an owl is sitting in a tree, he doesn't move anything but his eyes."
Good Luck
