The overexposure and stubble of beard combine as the kind of pale cast associated with an illness or maybe just with late middle age (regardless of the actual facts of the subject). The combination makes for an interesting and thought provoking portrait.
Very cool shot. Great detail. I love that the blacks are kept intact and the highlights and midtones are what are bright. I find this to be a very pleasing image.
