The man in the photograph

I have always been interested in how these frames, photos intact, make it to a charity shop. Being passionate about any photograph it makes me sad that it was discarded to the charity shop bag without a thought to the image inside.
These questions come to mind when looking at most objects in a charity shop (as some are brand new!) but this one in particular struck a chord with me as it was shot so well!
What do you get from this shot?
