Ok, it's real flash this time, right? It seems too strong, causing that very noticable shadow, and the highlights on his hand. The red bit behind his ear draws unwanted attention.
I've taken the image into PS, and it seems that pushing up the shadows in Levels makes the image look less overexposed. I also very quickly burned the strongest highlights on his hand and face (they'd need some more burning in places). The shadow is still there, though. I guess it possibly could have been eliminated by moving the subject further away from the wall.
It's a great expression he's got. What does the hand gesture mean? "That'll be TWO beers for letting you take my picture"? :-)
