Very nice shot. I would try three subtle changes and see whether you like it better:
1) Crop to just a little bit above the hat.
2) Select his eyes and from his mouth to his chin, and sharpen some more
3) Darken just a bit on his right cheek (image's left side) - not too much; it's fine to be bright than the other side.
This would be a great time to use my favorite trick of a soft light layer, but painted in black to darken instead of white to lighten. I'd bet you would need a pretty low opacity to make it look good. |

| The (model's) right cheek is a bit washed out. You might want to try bouncing some of the natural light with a reflector, like a sheet of posterboard, to fill in the light on the other side of his face. |

| I think this is a great shot. Love the hat and how well he stands out from the background ... making him the center of attention. |
