The Martin Parr Foundation

I'm in Bristol for a day or two and I was keen to seek out the new(ish) Martin Parr Foundation and RPS HQ. It's in a fascinating regeneration project on the site of an old paint factory.

Having a look round the M P Foundation I suddenly realised that there was the great man himself. Brilliant. I managed to have a brief chat with him and I extolled the virtues of Blip. He was busy but very graciously agreed to a portrait. I should have used flash, because that is his trademark style. But I was too star struck.
