Great shot, but way to bright. Tone it down a little bit in PS and it'd be an amazing shot.

Yea, I brought it into PS and tone it down a bit. Looks even better. I toyed around with making it B&W. Thoughts?

I dialed them down a few points with PhotoImpact. Not sure it's really better, though - the original has a softness that is lost:

I messed with brightness and contrast in PS. Check it out on my regular site.

It's a really sweet pic, whichever version you prefer. I personally don't care for the gray cast you get by lowering brightness. Your original looks like it was taken on a sunny day.
