 Matt Murdock alias Daredevil.

He's blind and he's obliged to live in the dark. As I saw "darkness" challenge I've thought immediately at him.

I've taken one shot and I haven't done nothing special to obtain 'the final cut'.

Raw. Crop. Resize. Shadows and highlights. Blur.

And now I'm waiting to know "Where the Hell is Matt?"...
the final place in charts, I mean ;-)

A very competant smoothing technique gives this image an almost computer generated feel. The impression is one of bravery and the very essence of "super hero". The rather vague details that are revealed with a longer look at the image could have done with more light to reveal thier presence better and give a more immediate wow factor or "pop".

Yes yes, such impact from simple things...a toy I assume? I love making photos like this, light is everything here, what a great job.
