Overall it's a great image. :thumbsup:
That said, it's a bit flat, ie:more contrast would help, and the framing is odd, M42 at the bottom is bright and draws the eye - a square crop would likely assist to make the Running man more prominent.
But hey, considering you were literally doing this in your sleep, I'm gobsmakked! :eyepop:
You're on a roll mate :D

We usually see the Running Man as an interloper or photo-bomber peripherally incidental to M42. Here you've made him the subject. It worked very well. A fine composition.
