Which Would Martin Choose?

I stayed over in Manchester last night and this morning I went to Manchester Art Gallery to see an exhibition of photos by Martin Parr, a brilliant photographer. His street scenes are wonderful slices of life that look so effortlessly captured, but it really isn't that simple. I went out into St Peter's Square to try and get some street scenes. I was lucky enough to see a man setting up an easel by the tram stop and tried out a few shots of which this was my second favourite. It was also Mr PB's second favourite, but I didn't like his favourite  and he didn't like mine.
Addendum: I zoomed in on another image and saw a name on a canvas - it was this guy
