In large part, this project will talk upon some of the most notable photographers to have ever done the work of a documentary photographer to help

looking at the aspect of documentary photography along with the artists I will be discussing because I want to pursue a career for those candid
moments just like I am fascinated with. I think it's effective due to the simple fact without documentary photography or film, we would not know
solely about history and I think documentary work is a great contribute to humanity because without those moments captured if your memory goes bad
then you will not be able to relive those moments you longed to reminiscence. This project I plan to be a part of is unique in its own right and I say
that because not everybody that documents a photo have envisioned it before taking it and that's the difference between an artist and just someone that
is a photographer. As far as new ideas, with documentary photography it gives a sense of pride to just go and find something to shoot but do it in a
creative manner. Photography is more than just media or mass communication; it deals with what you find the most intriguing to the eye and what

According to the Digital Photography Schools' Darren Rowse many different elements are used in photography. Patterns can make photographs more
striking for viewers. Symmetry is a powerful element in photography. Taking a picture with a strong point of interest and enhancing the symmetry
around that point draws the attention of the viewer(s). When used correctly texture can create a three–dimensional feel to pictures. The texture in a
photograph should focus on sources of light hitting objects at interesting angles. Shallow depth of field can isolate subjects from the background or
foreground. The same technique can give viewer context by using large depth of field to focus on the surroundings of the subject. Lines are one of the
most important elements of photography. The viewer's eyes are drawn to the lines (see Figure 2). Photographers can use lines to draw viewers attention

Analysis Of The Book ' French Photography 1800-1960 '
The Barnes Foundation's newest exhibition, French Photography 1800–1960, is a collection of photographs that encapsulates life in France during the
19th and 20th centuries. The exhibit features photographs by artists including Ilse Bing, Brassai, and Henri Cartier Bresson. Entering into the exhibit is
like taking a trip through time; depending on if you turn left or right at the entrance to the exhibit, you can travel forward through time from the early
to the mid 1900s or you can travel backwards. The exhibit is organized by eight different periods and the attitudes that were most prevalent during them.
The categories are: Paris and Environs, Street Life, Commerce, Labor, Leisure, Reportage, Celebrity, and Art for Art's Sake. The exhibit is an
enlightening trip through time, highlighting the glamorable life in France in the 19th and 20th centuries, bringing to life artistic movements,
culminating in the final intersection of cubism and photography, Brassai's piece Transmutation: Girl Dreaming being perhaps the brightest star in the
collection. Unlike other exhibits in the Barnes, French Photography is unique in its medium. Photographs are fresh and different from the Barnes'
usual paintings. It is also different in the Barnes' treatment of the pieces. Main installments at the Barnes are hung on the walls as if they were in

A Brief Note On The Process Of Photography Essay

The process of photography is very complex since the beginning when it was first invented. Photography was a form of art invented in the 1830s.
Today os is a multi billion dollar industry with enthusiasts worldwide. The first form of photography was introduced though the form of camera
obscura around the 13th century by an Arabian scholar. It 's a closed box with a hole on the side. The light goes through the hole and creates an
image on the wall of the box. The image was mirrored upside down which was created by the light. The first ever picture taken from a camera was
in 1825 by the inventor Joseph Niepce. The picture was the view out of a window. The first ever color photo taken was in 1861 by James Clerk
Maxwell which was a tartan ribbon. The Kodak Brownie was invented in 1901 which was the first camera available for purchase. It only took black
and white photos. Color photography wasn 't known until the 19th century. By the year 1982 Sony introduced the still video camera which changed
the game. In 1999 Nikon designed the first ever DSLR camera which retailed for $5,000. In the year 2000 the first ever camera phone was
introduced. Today there are many DSLR cameras and camera phones. A well recognized photographer, Steve McCurry finds himself very recognized

The Influence of Eastman Kodak Company on Photography Essay

Camera in 1900. (Baker, n.p.) Its features became more refined since its original placing on the market; one of the reasons why it has become
considered the birth of public photography is because of the processing. Using a similar image capture system, the brownie exposed the light to a
120mm roll of film, which could be wound round, meaning six photographs could be taken before the slides needed removing. The first Brownie used
a six–exposure cartridge that Kodak processed for the photographer. (Kodak.com, n.d.) Realistically, the armature photographers did not need to

(Bellis, 2009) Nevertheless, the main selling point of digital cameras was the convenient way that they could be stored. Every exposure is almost
instantly saved to a removable disk drive, which remarkably expired the use of darkroom processing. It was convenient, less time was needed to
produce an image, making it particularly appealing to journalism. The photograph has since then become an instant process. Combined with the
invention of the Internet, and booming industry of personal computers, the newer technology would expire its predecessor. There are billions of
photographs on the Internet, comprising the largest most diverse photo collection ever assembled. We have access to imagery from all over the world,
using key words and hash tags to catalogue imagery and content; we can see what is happening without being there. The introduction of digital
photography has enabled photographers to record terabits of imagery which can be stored in minute places, meaning the coverage that we have of the
modern world is greater than ever. Unlike the formats that Henri Cartier–Bresson used, where each roll of film, or negative slide needed storing in a
large physical place, under controlled conditions, an archive of objects. Automation came with digital photography, its combination of digital

The Effects Of Film Photography On The World
Unlike photojournalism which is quick coverage of breaking news and events, Documentary photography focuses on a story or event in depth over a
period of time. Visual storytelling has the power to capture the public's attention, highlight pressing issues and expose ignored realities. Early
documentary photography was mostly used to bring about social reform. For example, Lewis Hines photographs played a role in passing the child
labour law in America. Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange created photographs, which were "the most important example of a state–funded
documentary project in the world" (Wells, p97), Wells, L (2009) Photography : A Critical Introduction which documented how the depression affected
farm workers in America.
During the 1950's and 1960's, photographers such as Diane Arbus, Garry Winogrand, Robert Frank, greatly influenced the effect documentary
photography had on the world. Winogrand stated that he took pictures "To see what something looks like as aphotograph". In the late 1950's and early
60's, American photographers changed the style of documentary photography from its traditional and usual snapshot photographs and instead used
various techniques to carefully compose and create incredible stories.
This essay will now focus on Swiss–born photographer, Robert Frank and his book "The Americans". While analyzing this documentary project, we
have to keep in mind various different questions in order to evaluate the work. Questions such as,

Henri Cartier–Bresson was a French photographer who developed the genre of candid photography. In his early life, he was introduced to cameras

sketching. However, he later abandoned those ideas and developed a new found interest in photography. He also took part in the sport of hunting.

The Influence Of Robert Capa's Approach To Photography
Robert Capa's approach to photography was one of the simpler methods, that being straight photography. Capa's images of war are often praised as
some of the best, as he was right there with the soldiers capturing the cycle of life and death. He is quoted as fittingly saying "If your pictures aren't
good enough, then you aren't close enough." One of his most famous images was taken on D–day, where after coming in with the second wave, he
captures the image of a soldier. Though the image is very shaky and blurred, it's a perfect example of Robert's approach, taking a photo there in the
moment, capturing the emotions of the moment and the chaos of war.
Capa's work wasn't always on the front lines though, he is known for also photographing the
aftermath ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This all comes with a bit of irony though, as Capa was known to hate war.
Robert had a strong influence on other photographers. This is apparent as he founded
Magnum Photos alongside Henri Cartier–Bresson, David Seymour, George Rodger, and William
Vandivert. These four photographers had a similar style to Capa, taking photographs in the moment and capturing the moment as it's happening. Capa's
images were mostly taken on a
35mm leica camera, and towards the end of his career, a Nikon and Contax 50mm camera. These camera types were very reflective of his style as
their smaller size allowed for his quick pictures in the moment without the need to set up a photo. Robert's photos, being in the 1930's to the
1950's were black and white. Since colored photography was available to capa in the 1930's and above, I believe he didn't use this style because the
desaturation of color from his photos allowed the viewer to see past the fancy and eye appeal and into the emotions and action of the photo in front
of them. This is well seen in his photos of the prisoners of war and civilians. He would take most of these pictures with people seemingly oblivious to
the camera, leading me to believe

Photography Is A Great Physical And Intellectual Joy
"To photograph is to hold one 's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It 's at that precise moment that mastering an image
becomes a great physical and intellectual joy. (Henri Cartier–Bresson). To take a photo should not merely be a snap and leave or a smile and share.
Unfortunately, many people tend to think taking a photo is the simplest thing to do, but that is entirely not the case. Photography has been growing for
centuries depending on how much of the society really cares for it, and the changing of technology from traditional cameras to digital.
Photos create an awareness of just how much the world holds of stunning objects and the beauty around it. "Many use photography to seek a deeper
understanding of ourselves and our world. This goal is commonly pursued through the production of images that isolate the subject, capturing it in a
fraction of a second of time" (Persinger, T. 2007). Photography to others meant a lot, people put their efforts and feelings in it. The majority of people
that have interest in photography are those who seek more of what they hold. They see beyond their eyelashes, and they have bigger imagination than
others do. According to Another Heyday, photographers want to attain the unanswered questions through photos they capture. When taking a photo,
they're telling the observer a story, without words, just a photo and silence. "Photography is a marvelous language that crosses linguistic borders as a

The Tragedy Of Anti Semitic Policies
World War II (1)Why did the St. Louis become well known in Canadian history? The tragedy of anti
–Semitic policies was clearly illustrated on May
15, 1939 when 907 Jews sailed from Hamburg, Germany, aboard the ship St. Louis; it travelled from coast to coast of North and South America
seeking refuge. First, they were rejected by the Cuban government and the refugees were turned away by all the Latin American countries, and
Canada and the US became the last hope for the refugees. The United States ignored their appeal, and it was made clear that Canada did not
consider the St. Louis its problem. Frederick Blair, Director of the Canadian Immigration Branch, claimed that no country could "open its doors
wide enough to take in the hundreds of thousands of Jewish people who want to leave Europe: the line must be drawn somewhere." As a result of
several countries' refusal to accept the Jewish refugees, the passengers aboard the St. Louis were forced to return to Europe, where many of the
passengers were detained and sent to death camps. Many died in the Nazi death camps. Despite growing evidence of the existence of the death camps,
many countries refused to accept Jewish refugees. Canada did not have a good record of providing a safe haven for European Jews. In the end, Canada
accepted fewer than 4000 Jewish immigrants. Eventually, when Canada discovered the Nazi concentration camps, numerous deaths, and stories from
survivors, Canada realized its past mistake. Canada

Cartier-Bresson Biography
Cartier–Bresson was no doubt a great photographer. He travelled all over the world, going to places where he and his camera bore witness to the human
upheaval in 20th century, from the Spanish Civil War, the regime change in China, to the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi and many others.
Moreover, his "The Decisive Moment" theory impacted countless photographers afterward. Although many of his photos are black and white, they are
even more influential than most color photos. He took his photos with such creative style, that it was almost as if he froze the moments and made them
eternal. With such an impeccable history and influence in the industry, Cartier–Bresson was by no doubt, one of the most remarkable photographers
ever.
Cartier–Bresson was born – as the oldest among five children – in Chanteloup, France on the 22nd of August, 1908 (CheМЃroux 4). He came from a
well–to–do family; his father being a prosperous textile manufacturer while his mother's family owned land and traded in cotton. He attended a
catholic school called Г‰cole FГ©nelon before entering a private art school at the Lhote Academy in 1927 (CheМЃroux 7). Lhote managed to nurture
the interest of painting in him; an interest that would later contribute to his vision – he considered Lhote's teachings as photography minus the camera.

However, the first camera he owned was given to him by Harry Crosby, some years before he went to Africa in 1931 (Young 281). In Africa,
Cartier–Bresson lived in the bush while recording his encounters with his miniature camera. For survival, he shot game and sold it to the locals. His
hunting methods later helped him in his photography as well. His return to France furthered his connection with the surrealists. The decision to take up
photography instead of continuing with painting was inspired by Martin Munkacsi's "Tree Boys at Lake Tanganyika" photograph (Ellis and Khuner

Photography Books and the Photographers Who Created Them
This essay will try to be about photography books and the photographers who created them. I will try to explain on their importance in history and
why they are so important to all photographers, as a whole idea and individually, as inspiration. The Pencil of Nature was written by Henry Fox
Talbot it was originally published in six installments between 1844 and 1846. It included 24 calotype prints, each one was pasted in by hand
These helped illustrate some of the possible applications for his new process. It was the first photographic book with illustrations to be published for
commercial reasons . The Pencil of Nature was published and sold one section at a time, without any binding. This seems to be a common practise
for most books during this time period.The purchasers had to pay a bookbinder to bind them once all the installments had been released It was wholly
executed by the new art of,Photogenic Drawing, which was a contact printing process using salt. Talbot had planned a large number of installments;
however, the book was not a financial success and he was forced to terminate the project after completing only six. This volume is regarded as an
important and influential work in the history of photography. It started what was become a revolution of artist putting their work in book form, thus
combining many separate photographs into one cohesive idea. The Family Album of Lucybelle Crater by Ralph Eugene Meatyard was originally

An Excerpt Photographer, Henri Cartier-Bresson
Henri Cartier–Bresson An apt photographer, Henri Cartier–Bresson had many things to say about photography, as he thought that art was extremely
subjective. He admired photography, saying that the only thing in common in all photographers was the camera and that a camera was similar to a
drawing canvas where anything could be photographed. In his work, The Mind's Eye, Bresson analyzes the secrets behind creating photographic
masterpieces with one's mind, vision, and perspective. In the introduction, Bresson is described as the father of the decisive moment, which, according
to the excerpt, is "the moment at which the elements in motion are in balance". He wrote, "There are those who take photographs arranged beforehand
and those who go out to discover the image and seize it. For ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Bresson explained that photography seems to be a simple task that even an inept peasant could take on; however, since, photography is art, it is hugely
subjective. It's not science or math, where to create the perfect answer, one would need to have a precise amount. In photography, everything, light, the
amount of exposure, etc., is measured to perfection simply by thinking about what it should be–after all, art, by definition, is whatever you or society
says it is. Therefore, Bresson also explained that manipulated photographs or impure photographs didn't bother him, as everyone has different
opinions concerning art, and if one were to criticize a piece of art, it would be an extremely basic and superficial judgement. Bresson emphasizes, yet
again, that "To take photographs is to hold one's breathe when all faculties converge in the face of fleeing reality. It is at that moment that mastering an
image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy". It is clear that one of Bresson's fundamental principles of photography was spontaneity. Because

Thomas Annan at work.
Annan was commissioned by the Trustees to record it's passing, an antiquarian commission that answered an anxiety about the city's ferocious pace of
change. Although taken at a time of public concern about the appalling overcrowding of the urban working class, his photographs are not obviously
documents of social investigation. Through his dispassionate attention to the visual, Annan initiated what later came to be known as the documentary
tradition. From this work more then developed such as the work by Jacob Riis, How the other half lives in 1888, photographs taken to document
expose the everyday misery of the unseen poor in the Mulberry Bend Slum. His book was the first expose to be illustrated with documentary
photographs and a landmark for social justice.
I believe that Activist photography is about using your camera as a tool in order to change the world, by using this you can capture photographic
images to advocate for social and environmental awareness. Drug use, prostitution, pollution can be looked at, or problems that are further a field such
as famine, war, and the plight of refugees and migrant workers. One recognised example of an activist photographer would be landscape photographer

Summary Of Untitled By William Eggleston
This visual analysis will discuss the 1975 photograph "Untitled", shot by William Eggleston, and its relation to his broader canon of work and the
larger context of American photography.
Brought up in a wealthy family, William Eggleston bought his first camera, in 1957 and switched from monochrome to colour in 1965. His use of
colour was innovative which led his work to welcome controversial remarks. Henri Cartier–Bresson once remarked to him at a dinner party in Paris:
'William, colour is bullshit', to which the American photographer replied, 'Excuse me,' and left the table. 'I thought it was the most polite thing to do.'
Untitled is freighted with untold stories. You feel the gentle breeze along with the heat of the day; the stale grass; the mute mutterings of the wind; and
that moment smothered under the weight of its sheer lassitude. This portrait is somewhat less of a person or place but more of a single moment in
time. He never has diminished what he sees but somehow enlarges both the trivial and the momentous. By supposing that photography is at its most
vibrant when it seeks to understand not just a setting, but a single moment in time; or even just an feeling, or hard–to–place emotion, Eggleston makes
the case for photography engaging on a deeper emotional level than simple aesthetics.
Eggleston's photography has been derided for its compositional blankness, for its ordinariness, even for its usage of colour. This now seems absurd.

The Lifestyle of a Documentary Photographer: Research Project This paper will help give insights to those that don't know photography so they can hear from an artist perspective about the most significant aspect of photography which is documentary photography.

But they fail to know that with photography it takes documenting the things captured for those other particular aspects of photography.

In large part, this project will talk upon some of the most notable photographers to have ever done the work of a documentary photographer to help with the insights on creativity, authenticity, and individuality. To name a few, Henri Cartier Bresson, Vivian Maier and Gordon Parks. I'm primarily looking at the aspect of documentary photography along with the artists I will be discussing because I want to pursue a career for those candid moments just like I am fascinated with. I think it's effective due to the simple fact without documentary photography or film, we would not know solely about history and I think documentary work is a great contribute to humanity because without those moments captured if your memory goes bad then you will not be able to relive those moments you longed to reminiscence. This project I plan to be a part of is unique in its own right and I say that because not everybody that documents a photo have envisioned it before taking it and that's the difference between an artist and just someone that is a photographer. As far as new ideas, with documentary photography it gives a sense of pride to just go and find something to shoot but do it in a creative manner. Photography is more than just media or mass communication; it deals with what you find the most intriguing to the eye and what makes you think beyond just simplicity. As far as the list of the notable documentary photographers that were chosen and the reason for them being ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... According to the Digital Photography Schools' Darren Rowse many different elements are used in photography. Patterns can make photographs more striking for viewers. Symmetry is a powerful element in photography. Taking a picture with a strong point of interest and enhancing the symmetry around that point draws the attention of the viewer(s). When used correctly texture can create a three–dimensional feel to pictures. The texture in a photograph should focus on sources of light hitting objects at interesting angles. Shallow depth of field can isolate subjects from the background or foreground. The same technique can give viewer context by using large depth of field to focus on the surroundings of the subject. Lines are one of the most important elements of photography. The viewer's eyes are drawn to the lines (see Figure 2).

After putting his film in a press bag and sending it by courier for processing, he changed his clothes and returned to the beaches of Normandy on the first available boat. A week later, he learned that the pictures he had taken were considered the best images anyone had made of the invasion. However, an excited darkroom assistant, while drying the negatives had used on too much heat causing the film emulsion to melt before his eyes, running down the hanging strips before he could do anything. Out of the one hundred and six images Capa had taken only eight survived. Yet, when those few photos were published around the world, they caused a sensation. They were first photographs taken from the inside of a war, from the midst of a great battle. The faulty drying too had somehow added a special quality to them, one that lifts them out of that specific time and place, making them universal images of war. Many publications added a caption to these photos, to explain to readers why they were blurred and slightly out of focus. It read simply: "Capa's hands were badly shaking." Photographers were expected to be able to take these mind blowing pictures of the war in rapid action, but the truth is there technology back then wasn't advanced enough to be able to produce these sort of images.

When looking at Cartier–Bresson's artistic practice – the physical actions, techniques and procedures used to create the work combined with the conceptual ideas, influences, meanings and beliefs – we can see an emphasis on the story behind the image rather than its formation. There is a subtle influence of composition on his works though, due to his interest in painting before he became a photographer.1 We can observe his ability to capture the decisive moment, producing a...

This was what photojournalism of the time embodied; the wider picture. 9 Again there is sensitive composition, mainly in the form of contrast between the stark, denuded landscape and the colossal machinery, emphasised by the machine's dominance within the frame. On his second trip to the Soviet Union, Cartier–Bresson presented a very different Russia from the one shown in work from his first trip. His first visit was significant as he was the first Western photographer permitted to enter the Soviet Union since Joseph Stalin had died a year earlier;10 maybe he did not want to then produce bleak and melancholy images, which eventually came after his second visit in the early 1970s. Saint Petersburg (Leningrad) [Plate 3] is from the work Cartier–Bresson made on his second trip.

  • 7. Analysis Of The Book ' French Photography 1800-1960 ' The Barnes Foundation's newest exhibition, French Photography 1800–1960, is a collection of photographs that encapsulates life in France during the 19th and 20th centuries. The exhibit features photographs by artists including Ilse Bing, Brassai, and Henri Cartier Bresson. Entering into the exhibit is like taking a trip through time; depending on if you turn left or right at the entrance to the exhibit, you can travel forward through time from the early to the mid 1900s or you can travel backwards. The exhibit is organized by eight different periods and the attitudes that were most prevalent during them. The categories are: Paris and Environs, Street Life, Commerce, Labor, Leisure, Reportage, Celebrity, and Art for Art's Sake. The exhibit is an enlightening trip through time, highlighting the glamorable life in France in the 19th and 20th centuries, bringing to life artistic movements, culminating in the final intersection of cubism and photography, Brassai's piece Transmutation: Girl Dreaming being perhaps the brightest star in the collection. Unlike other exhibits in the Barnes, French Photography is unique in its medium. Photographs are fresh and different from the Barnes' usual paintings. It is also different in the Barnes' treatment of the pieces. Main installments at the Barnes are hung on the walls as if they were in someone's living room but a black line drawn through every room prevents any viewer from getting to close to the works of art.

PHOTOGRAPHY IS AS MUCH ABOUT IDEAS AS IT IS ABOUT CREATING VISUAL IMAGES Introduction: Analysis: To photograph is to paint with light so, by its very essence the pursuit of photography is the chase of the image. An image should be visually capable of communicating a narrative, the message conveyed depends more on the viewer than the photographer, factors that come into play are based on the viewers own experiences, be they political or personal.

("Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History."). Sid Grossman, a Photo League photographer expressed this sentiment, summarizing the role photography had on America in the 1940's and 50's. During this era, photojournalism climaxed, causing photographers to join the bandwagon or react against it. The question of whether photography can be art was settled a long time ago.

He felt that FSA photographers used stylistic elements such as sharp focus, even lighting, and frontal composition to mark their images as factual and that they should be read as unbiased. He felt that the work should be described as documentary style. American photographers of the late 1950's and 60's reinvented the documentary tradition. Photographers like Diane Arbus, Garry Winogrand, and lee Friedlander looked at the world through the "astonish–me" viewpoint. Diane Nemerove, or better known as Diane Arbus, was an American Documentary Photographer known for her compelling, yet often disturbing portraits of people from the edges of society. An example is the 1962 image of The Boy with the Hand Grenade in Central Park. As a native New Yorker, Diane Arbus photographed the people of the city, but not just the everyday. Arbus sought out those at the edge of society. She depicts the daily life, but with an emphasis on the abnormality of the commonplace. When looking at the image of the boy in 1962, the child seems no different from other children; his facial expression communicating a frustration beyond the specific image.

He is widely revelled as one of the greatest photographers ever; thanks to his free–spirited and nonconformist approach to his technique. He felt as though he needed to integrate himself into his projects as well as his subjects, which is what set him apart from the others in his league. He always showed a piece of himself in every photograph or portrait in his career. Way back in January 2nd 1938, Bailey was born into a blue–collar family up in East Ham, London. He had trouble in school with reading and spelling (which he would later be diagnosed with dyslexia); the way he got around reading was by looking at the way the letters were written. He memorized them. By the time the young Bailey turned 15, he dropped out of school and three years later was drafted into the Royal Air Force in 1956. That's when his magic began.

Using a similar image capture system, the brownie exposed the light to a 120mm roll of film, which could be wound round, meaning six photographs could be taken before the slides needed removing.

There are billions of photographs on the Internet, comprising the largest most diverse photo collection ever assembled. We have access to imagery from all over the world, using key words and hash tags to catalogue imagery and content; we can see what is happening without being there. The introduction of digital photography has enabled photographers to record terabits of imagery which can be stored in minute places, meaning the coverage that we have of the modern world is greater than ever.

Visual storytelling has the power to capture the public's attention, highlight pressing issues and expose ignored realities. Early documentary photography was mostly used to bring about social reform. For example, Lewis Hines photographs played a role in passing the child labour law in America. Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange created photographs, which were "the most important example of a state–funded documentary project in the world" (Wells, p97), Wells, L (2009) Photography : A Critical Introduction which documented how the depression affected farm workers in America. During the 1950's and 1960's, photographers such as Diane Arbus, Garry Winogrand, Robert Frank, greatly influenced the effect documentary photography had on the world. Winogrand stated that he took pictures "To see what something looks like as aphotograph".

He is quoted as fittingly saying "If your pictures aren't good enough, then you aren't close enough."

This all comes with a bit of irony though, as Capa was known to hate war. Robert had a strong influence on other photographers. This is apparent as he founded Magnum Photos alongside Henri Cartier–Bresson, David Seymour, George Rodger, and William Vandivert. These four photographers had a similar style to Capa, taking photographs in the moment and capturing the moment as it's happening. Capa's images were mostly taken on a 35mm leica camera, and towards the end of his career, a Nikon and Contax 50mm camera. These camera types were very reflective of his style as their smaller size allowed for his quick pictures in the moment without the need to set up a photo. Robert's photos, being in the 1930's to the 1950's were black and white. Since colored photography was available to capa in the 1930's and above, I believe he didn't use this style because the desaturation of color from his photos allowed the viewer to see past the fancy and eye appeal and into the emotions and action of the photo in front of them.

It 's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy. (Henri Cartier–Bresson). To take a photo should not merely be a snap and leave or a smile and share. Unfortunately, many people tend to think taking a photo is the simplest thing to do, but that is entirely not the case. Photography has been growing for centuries depending on how much of the society really cares for it, and the changing of technology from traditional cameras to digital. Photos create an awareness of just how much the world holds of stunning objects and the beauty around it. "Many use photography to seek a deeper understanding of ourselves and our world. This goal is commonly pursued through the production of images that isolate the subject, capturing it in a fraction of a second of time" (Persinger, T. 2007). Photography to others meant a lot, people put their efforts and feelings in it. The majority of people that have interest in photography are those who seek more of what they hold. They see beyond their eyelashes, and they have bigger imagination than others do. According to Another Heyday, photographers want to attain the unanswered questions through photos they capture.

First, they were rejected by the Cuban government and the refugees were turned away by all the Latin American countries, and Canada and the US became the last hope for the refugees. The United States ignored their appeal, and it was made clear that Canada did not consider the St. Louis its problem. Frederick Blair, Director of the Canadian Immigration Branch, claimed that no country could "open its doors wide enough to take in the hundreds of thousands of Jewish people who want to leave Europe: the line must be drawn somewhere." As a result of several countries' refusal to accept the Jewish refugees, the passengers aboard the St. Louis were forced to return to Europe, where many of the passengers were detained and sent to death camps. Many died in the Nazi death camps. Despite growing evidence of the existence of the death camps, many countries refused to accept Jewish refugees.

He travelled all over the world, going to places where he and his camera bore witness to the human upheaval in 20th century, from the Spanish Civil War, the regime change in China, to the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi and many others. Moreover, his "The Decisive Moment" theory impacted countless photographers afterward. Although many of his photos are black and white, they are even more influential than most color photos. He took his photos with such creative style, that it was almost as if he froze the moments and made them eternal. With such an impeccable history and influence in the industry, Cartier–Bresson was by no doubt, one of the most remarkable photographers ever. Cartier–Bresson was born – as the oldest among five children – in Chanteloup, France on the 22nd of August, 1908 (CheМЃroux 4). He came from a well–to–do family; his father being a prosperous textile manufacturer while his mother's family owned land and traded in cotton. He attended a catholic school called Г‰cole FГ©nelon before entering a private art school at the Lhote Academy in 1927 (CheМЃroux 7).

He admired photography, saying that the only thing in common in all photographers was the camera and that a camera was similar to a drawing canvas where anything could be photographed. In his work, The Mind's Eye, Bresson analyzes the secrets behind creating photographic masterpieces with one's mind, vision, and perspective. In the introduction, Bresson is described as the father of the decisive moment, which, according to the excerpt, is "the moment at which the elements in motion are in balance".

Bresson explained that photography seems to be a simple task that even an inept peasant could take on; however, since, photography is art, it is hugely subjective. It's not science or math, where to create the perfect answer, one would need to have a precise amount. In photography, everything, light, the amount of exposure, etc., is measured to perfection simply by thinking about what it should be–after all, art, by definition, is whatever you or society says it is. Therefore, Bresson also explained that manipulated photographs or impure photographs didn't bother him, as everyone has different opinions concerning art, and if one were to criticize a piece of art, it would be an extremely basic and superficial judgement. Bresson emphasizes, yet again, that "To take photographs is to hold one's breathe when all faculties converge in the face of fleeing reality. It is at that moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy". It is clear that one of Bresson's fundamental principles of photography was spontaneity.

  • 34. Summary Of Untitled By William Eggleston This visual analysis will discuss the 1975 photograph "Untitled", shot by William Eggleston, and its relation to his broader canon of work and the larger context of American photography. Brought up in a wealthy family, William Eggleston bought his first camera, in 1957 and switched from monochrome to colour in 1965. His use of colour was innovative which led his work to welcome controversial remarks. Henri Cartier–Bresson once remarked to him at a dinner party in Paris: 'William, colour is bullshit', to which the American photographer replied, 'Excuse me,' and left the table. 'I thought it was the most polite thing to do.' Untitled is freighted with untold stories. You feel the gentle breeze along with the heat of the day; the stale grass; the mute mutterings of the wind; and that moment smothered under the weight of its sheer lassitude. This portrait is somewhat less of a person or place but more of a single moment in time. He never has diminished what he sees but somehow enlarges both the trivial and the momentous. By supposing that photography is at its most vibrant when it seeks to understand not just a setting, but a single moment in time; or even just an feeling, or hard–to–place emotion, Eggleston makes the case for photography engaging on a deeper emotional level than simple aesthetics. Eggleston's photography has been derided for its compositional blankness, for its ordinariness, even for its usage of colour. This now seems absurd. How could his critics not see ...
