Thanks for the suggestion.  I like your idea about re-scanning/cropping tighter around the face.  It probably would look better cropped around the face.  It does look like he got hit with a pretty bright flash.  I will probably try to lighten up some of the bright areas with the burn tool.
You are right about it not being easy around the back of his head because it pretty much blends into the background.  I already tried selecting with the magnetic lasso and had some problems with that part.
