Henri Cartier-Bresson was a French photographer. He was born on August 22nd of 1908 and he died the 3rd of the same month, in 2004. He is considered the father of modern photojournalism. He developed a photography style called ''street photography'' or ''life reportage'', which is basically taking pictures of people or objects in public places. Generations of photographer followed this new style.
As all the photographers that we are writing about, this one also took pictures in black and white. This ones are my favorite.The first one is really interesting, weird and geometrical. I think it's very original. The two others are very cute and lovely.
He is one of my all time favorite photographers. I wish I had the courage to take photographs of people on the streets, they are so interesting.
