Father of modern photojournalism and considered THE master of candid photography, Henri Cartier-Bresson is just awesome. I respect this guy because, he just wanted to photograph reality, no set-ups whatsoever, and his pictures are great; all he captured were great moments. All he showed was how life was in a daily basis, or how things around us interact but we are so busy in our systematical life that we don’t notice them.
So what this says to me is that he was pretty patient, because he always waited to get that great shot; had a lot of perseverance; loved what he was doing and liked the simplicity in life. Those characteristics, I think, are great to have. Everything for me makes more sense if I see it that way. I don’t only respect and admire him as a photographer, but also the simply person that he showed he was.
