Time: Activity 1

Look at a Henri Cartier-Bresson photograph and discuss why you think that capturing the decisive moment has added to the picture’s quality.

The moment that was captured in this photograph has quality because it shows the fun, playful and adventurous side that children have. It's also very interesting because these kids don't show any fear as they climb up or while they are shoving each other on top, but in todays society
kids can't ride their bikes without a parent in a 5-foot radius, in fear, for both parent and child, that something might happen.

 In this moment, it is very relaxed and quite. Unlike the first, with the children where you can imagine laughter, I imagine complete silence, bliss and concentration. Henri Carter-Bresson has a variety of photographs, catching different times we all sort of experience, and I really admire him for his style of photography. He catches the little moments in life and makes it art.
