Call it just timing if you will, but i like the way the man as figure is the only 'upright' thing in the photo's frame, and all other (straight) lines are angled to the photo frame. Makes for a dynamic photo, accentuates the human figure as focus (and the only thing 'at rest'), and kind of hints at the abstract and dynamic nature of life.
