Light Problem
Does anyone knoe how I can make this image(around his face) darker. It is too light. When I tried to use curves it didn't work to well.

Hey John-Bob

This is the best I could do, as your pic is really Low-Res.
I used a little burn on the places that were really bright (10% exposure on Highlights) then using the eyedropper I took a sample of the colour of the skin from the back of the neck. The using the brush tool set to color at about 40% exposure I filled in the colour information that was missing from where the glare was.
There is probebly a much easier way using a nice complex action, but this way works for me

Have fun

As Tabitha says, it's difficult working at this resolution, a lot of the detail has gone. Here's my attempt.
