Favorite photo - Look From Behind, with Feeling

My group and I chose this photo from today's LENS's slideshow because:
1) The picture uses the rule of thirds.  The man in the photo isn't in the middle.
2) The picture also uses diagonals.  The tightrope and boxes on the left are diagonals, and these diagonals draw my eyes through the photo.
3) This picture uses the depth of field. The photo goes from a close up image of the man and the circus, and the diagonals lead our eyes to the far distance on the right side of the photo.

This photo is my favorite photo because not only does it use these rules of composition, but it also uses other geometric shapes.  There are also many colors that are appealing to the eye; none of the colors are too bright or too dark.
