Favorite Quote:
For me the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity, the master of the instant which, in visual terms, questions and decides simultaneously. In order to &ldquo;give a meaning&rdquo; to the world, one has to feel involved in what one frames through the viewfinder. This attitude requires concentration, discipline of mind, sensitivity, and a sense of geometry. It is by economy of means that one arrives at simplicity of expression.<br /> <br /> To take a photograph is to hold one&rsquo;s breath when all faculties converge in a face of fleeing reality. It is at that moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.<br /> <br /> To take a photograph means to recognize &ndash; simultaneously and within a fraction of a second&ndash; both the fact itself and the rigorous organisation of visually perceived forms that give it meaning.<br /> <br /> It is putting one&rsquo;s head, one&rsquo;s eye, and one&rsquo;s heart on the same axis.<br /> <br /> -Henri-Cartier-Bresson
