Thank you. Glad to be here!Can't ID it but it's a nice image. Welcome to the forum.
Union Infantry private. He's wearing a shell/roundabout style jacket. Civilian style slouch hat. Wearing an enlisted waistbelt with US oval buckle. Cartridge box sling with eagle breast plate. The thin belt and pistol holster are probably studio props. The rifle is a touch blurry but I believe he's holding a P53 Enfield Rifle Musket. I'm leaning Upper Mid West regiment maybe. Looks similar to some of the photos @major bill bill posts .Thanks guys. Would love to know anything anybody can tell me by his uniform and what not. Is he Union or Confederate? Can anybody tell me what rank he is? I know very little about the Civil War but am very interested in learning.

Either his right hand is bandaged or he's let his shirt sleeve fall down. Great image.
If you can find an image with a similar backdrop, you might have a chance identifying the photographer.
