Happy Birthday Henri Cartier-Bresson!! This French photographer was born in 1908 and considered the Father of Modern Photojournalism. He was born in France and owned a Brownie box camera as a child. He studied painting in a Parisian studio. He described the camera lens as an “extension of his eye” and his aim to “capture the decisive moment”. He had an eye for composition, as demonstrated in the photo below.
