Hi Frank ... I don't see this as a portrait at all, nor do I see it as much of a snap, either. There's no eye contact, which, in and of itself isn't always necessary, but in this case I think it would help. PP has a very "goofy" expression on his face, his head is at an awkward angle, he shows no relationship to anything else in the frame or to the photographer, and the guy on the right has no relationship to anything else that might be going on, adding neither interest nor story content to the overall photo. Cropping him out may be a good idea.
