While I don't know who is behind the mask in central park, apart from the location, there are a couple of noticeable differences...
The black and white shot makes it easier to blur the details.

First the jumper, one has a zip, one not
Second, shoes are different...

Just look at the actual sketch...

the guy who took the photo said

"I took the photo in Central Park and sad to admit I had never heard of Banksy at the time. I was in Central Park on the May 17th. I was in the city to see an exhibit and went to the park afterwards. It was one of those moments where I happened to have my camera on me, but almost missed the shot. I walked by completely unaware of him at first and the friends I was with pointed him out to me. I wish I had said something to him, but he gave me a nervous look as I got down to take the picture and thought it best to hurry on my way. Now that I know more about him I am really kicking myself for not taking more/better shots."

He must have taken off the 'clava after the drawing(s) was complete...
I doubt he'd have walked around NYC with his face covered...

I'm going to NYC in a week. Could someone tell me which of the new (and old?) Banksy's are still there and where they are located!?

[jopkop]

so rattrapnyc you are the most inspiring artists among all? Omar?

great job you did there.. fabulous..

[fuzzed]

brilliant... thanks rattrapnyc

[ramo]

Thanks Omar, as one comment on your site says: "jealousy is a b**ch"! Very poor!!

[dkuehnen]

Omar, its pretty obvious you didn't get as much attention for your amazingly beautiful cross-outs of Banksy pieces as you thought you would.... looking for feedback a few months later is pretty pathetic....

You are doing Robbo's work for him.... so not only is jealousy a B*tch for you... You are Robbo's B*tch....

Let Robbo and Banksy figure it out...

[thecatalyst]

Trolls. It's always best not to feed them.

[otomi]

I agree - it's best to not pay attention to people with napoleon complex or they will feel encouraged
