Henri Cartier-Bresson took mostly black-and-white photos of people and everyday life on the streets. He was great at capturing real, natural moments-like people walking, talking, or doing something interesting-without them knowing he was taking a picture. He called this the “decisive moment” because it’s the perfect second when everything in the photo fits together perfectly.
His photos often show strong shapes, lines, and patterns, making the pictures look balanced and beautiful. He used a small camera that let him move quickly and quietly, so he could take pictures without disturbing the scene.
