Moment décisif

<< Previous Entry | Next Entry>>

"For me, the camera is a sketchbook, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity and the master of the instant, which questions and decides simultaneously. In order to 'give a meaning' to the world, one has to feel oneself involved in what he frames through the viewfinder. This attitude requires concentration, a discipline of mind, sensitivity, and a sense of geometry."

Henri Cartier-Bresson, portrait and landscape photographer whose work on a 50 mm Leica marked the beginning of photojournalism, and co-founder of Magnum agency died at 95.
