Henri Cartier- Bresson

I like his work because it enables the viewer to feel as though they are involved in his work. Many of these photographs create a sense of space  for the viewer whether it is apart of the crowded street or a quiet empty road. His work is very easy to get involved with and that is one reason I like his photographs.Cartier- Bresson subject often times do not realize that he is capturing  them, it is not a posed position he is looking for.

This photograph of these women portrays a pause to their perhaps daily activity. He does not wait for them to stop what they are doing, he captures them at the heart of the action.

In the video he states, " I'm hooked on drawing, go back to your first love". When he stated that, I felt like I could relate because my true passion is drawing, but I also love photography. I admire his sketches and drawing because there is a looseness and expression that I have a hard time trying to create.
