Actually it was a candid shot.

I love the tone and the overall image of this capture. There is something special about a photo that tells a story in that one shot.

I would recomend getting closer and shooting up on the man as that would serve to add strength. I know you included the mirror for context, but it should be cropped closer to the head. It's more a candid shot than a portrait I know, but I think those improvements would help this and remove the clutter from around him as well (ie. the table at the right and the can on the table left.)

I like the reflection in the mirror. Nice Composition, as well.
