 Shot outside in the sun, 580EX off camera fired for fill flash. RAW Conversion to high contrast, and increased exposure to an over-exposure. Converted to BW using calculations, then adjusted levels (extreme) to give a very high contrast; followed by some dodge and burn. Adjustment layer to bring out detail in eyes. Very slight blue tone added, opacity of that layer reduced to 15%

I love the expression, and the harsh lighting just adds to the fun.

A bit to bright but still a funny face.

B&W works really good here, well done.

One of the better portraits I've seen in this challenge. The eyes just pop (was this due to post processing, or just how you captured it?). The over-exposure doesn't bother me, in fact I think it helps the image.

Great editing. Love the high contrast. Fun shot. I hope it does well. The eyes are killer.
