ANYONE HERE A FAN OF HENRI CARTIER BRESSON photography?

I'm sure there are lots of fans here. He had the most original eye for composition of all time.

 

I like Wynn Bullock's eye...she was pretty legit...as was Gordon Parks, Russel Lee and Daido Moriyama. But I'm pretty young yet, so I haven't studied photography as much as most of you guys.

I'm a fan, and what shocks me the most about him is the fact that he shot 99% of his pictures with his Leica and just one 50mm lens. He also had a tremendous sense of politics and understood the world so well, he was always in the right place at the right time.

Wynn Bullock was a man.

 

My bad....I only have a tiny book of his stuff that my grandma has at her house. It doesn't say anythign and the pictures are like sort of glued in. So...as I said, I know very little about photographers. I know a lot about directors, painters and composers (and even some cinematographers)...not as much as I should about photographers. I only know of the ones whose work I enjoy looking at.
