It's a nice shot and of a definitely decisive moment, as they say.
Don, not sure you're aware of this, but there IS a quite famous mono shot(I'm not sure if it's Cartier-Bresson or not...pretty sure though it was shot later) entitled "Flying", and with pretty much the same concept: a man with briefcase in a busy street(er, that'd be "sidewalk"?) stepping out to cross the traffic; it too is shot from a low-ish angle and also catches the moment of "flight" with both feet in the air very well. Maybe worth a search, as this "floating" quality is really a very haunting and emotional one.
I know it's not the critique forum here...but I have to say that your shot is so good, and taken with that added "dislocating" feeling of what seems to be a longer focal length, that here the sharpening artefacts(for me) do it no favours. Please forgive my candour...I'd have kept my mouth shut if it were not such a powerful and well-timed shot!

Thanks Zig. I always forgive Candor. The shot is a small detail. The artifacts come from enlarging as much as sharpening. Thanks for your comment.

Ah, thanks Don, I'd no idea it was a crop.

[Don Schaeffer]

You are right though. It is noisy.
