Who is that Masked Boy?

Here is the B4 SOOC:



And this is the after (I entered this one in this week's contest):



First thing I did was crop the photo, then applied a high pass filter (thanks Donato2) and then cloned out the catchlight in his eyes (wanted him to look meaner). I also had him hold a flashlight off to his left side and I turned on a lamp on his right side and then diffused the flash. And of course he is wearing Batman's mask...

Very nicely done.
His skin is somewhat orange in my calibrated monitor.

I might try darkening the pic and do something with the eyes to give it a sinster look.
Very creative.

This reminds me of posters for the 1960s Batman film that starred Adam West - the low contrast and rather orange tone enhance that illusion.
