I 've been playing with the idea of doing something similar with cascades or with some cardboard cuts. My friend calls these tricks "the post box light". I like the way you've been able to get the eyes really striking but I must say the completely burnt hilites on the forehead are not nice. Again, my preference, I like the steep B&W contrast. It works well in my eyes.
