Photojournalism Part 1

Godfather of Photo Journalism

Henri Cartier-Bresson was a French photographer, considered to be the father of modern photojournalism. He was born August 22, 1908 and died August 3, 2004.
He helped develop the "street photography" style, which was also known as "real life reportage", that has influenced generations of photographers who followed.
As a young boy, Henri owned a box brownie, using it on his holidays to take snapshots.

This is one of Henri Cartier-Bresson's most famous pictures. It is known as The Decisive Moment. This picture was one that caught his attention, inspiring him to put down his paint brush on his return to france and devote himself to photography.
