This is such a great portrait! And really awesome rescue. I love how the bokeh is only on the level of his face. Great job!

@klr, nice job! LR is great for saving photos that would otherwise be discarded.

Very nice save and very nice image as well. This is why I tell all my students to try B&W when dealing with over exposed images. The eye is much more forgiving when seeing overexposed sections of a B&W image.

It is easier to recover an over exposed shot than under exposed especially done in RAW

I agree. Plus, I really like bright shots to begin with.
