Photojournalism Part 1

Henri Cartier Bresson ( August 22, 1908 - August 03, 2004). Henrri was a painter but started photography. He then became the             'Godfather' of photography. One of his most famous phtograph was this one shown on the right. He walked around taking pictures of ' the decisive moment' and cptured it with a Leica camera.
