Great subject - difficult exposure to master. You may want to check out Strobist (www.strobist.blogspot.com) to learn about how you may have been able to light this image.
Please tell me no one was hurt. Amazing picture, and the colour and bw work. (Distance is not among the first things conveyed to me here, else I'd have scored you higher).
Great shot. I love that you've managed to get the lighting just right, extending right down to his fingernails - and to freeze him at night without blur... most impressive :)
