Henri Cartier-Bresson


Cartier-Bresson's work should be the focus of your next homework for Ms Taylor due Friday. Your photos must aim to show compassion, geometry and a decisive moment.  Print 3-5 and annotate them. You should aim to incorporate any of Cartier-Bresson's photos that inspired you.

For inspiration, conduct your own research on Cartier-Bresson. Check out a selection of photos on the Magnum Website or read about him on Wikipedia. Lastly, check out youtube for a variety of shot documentaries about his work.

Don't forget to consider shutter speed and lighting when shooting your photos.

Good luck. (Getting a photo of a decisive moment requires a bit of this.)
