Answer 1

You meta is having below image url:

<meta property="og:image" content="https://itsthyme.com/skin/frontend/base/default/images/catalog/product/placeholder/image.jpg"/>

and facebook is fetching that url for sharing.

You need replace the og:image meta tag with your product image.

Answer 2

In your local.xml for the theme, between

   <reference name="head">

   </reference>

add in:

<block type="core/template" name="social.code" template="page/html/social-code.phtml"/>

Then create a new file in yourpackage/yourtheme/template/page/html and call it social-code.phtml.

Inside this file you can put meta tags for the main social media sites:

<?php 
if (Mage::registry('current_product')) {
        $product    = Mage::registry('current_product');
        $product    = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($product->getId());
} //load product information
?>


<?php if ($product) : ?>
//echo product image URL below
<meta property="og:image" content="<?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($product, 'image')->resize(600,315); ?>" />
<!-- Other tags can go here, e.g. title, type, url -->
<?php endif; ?>
